Inner fender removal for weight reduction?

We bought the valiant with the cage installed. The problem we ran into was the J bars were to low for the headers to fit. So On the Demon we cut the cowl vent duct out of the body so we can raise the J bar right under the cowl. The valiant is probably going to get the J bars raise by just boring the cowl and a funny car addition to cage. We don't want to get to invasive on the interior and dash. Here is how we cut the cowl on Demon 1. Our Demon 2 will only get the united steel style full weld in frame ties frame ties.

Yes both cars are finally back in the shop. I was going to build the Duster but I believe I have it sold. We'll see? I have more Demon parts then Duster and was made an offer I cannot refuse.

My orange Duster weighed 3650 with full bucket interior loaded with all options including. A mild steel 8 point with swing outs . Spare still fastened in the trunk. fasted recorded time was 10.67 @ 128. So this time like you, We are putting the demon on a diet.

Cowl weighed almost 10 lbs. We even lightened the engine LOL.
