Is it a gasoline heater? My car has headers and the flapper box in the front trunk was eliminated. I thought the Tart had headers as well.

Mine came in way heavy back at the last chassis set-up at West End Alignment.
2596 - w/me in the car (+160), 2/3rds tank of gas, and nothing in the trunk........
Full stock '73 stuff + flares, 7's & 8's, duck tail, vintage TRE roll bar, and what must be the heaviest set of OE sport seats on the planet...

My 911 weighed in at 2360 lbs. At the time the specs were:
'77 911 chassis with no sunroof, a/c, pw windows, radio, or rear seat backs. Recaro SRD seats. All stock glass windows.
'86 3.2 engine, 915 transmission w/ lsd, and oil cooling system.
Backdated 9" fiberglass front fenders, hood, bumpers, ducktail, and heat system. Metal 11" rear flares.
8&9x15" Fuchs with 205/55 and 225/50 Toyo T1R tires.
Full tank of gas, optima red battery, 14" Fuchs spare wheel/tire in place, jack and tools included.
I've made a few changes since then (mainly 3.6 w/ plastic intake and 9&10.5x17" Zuffenhaus wheels) but it's still probably around the same weight. Maybe closer to 2400lbs now.
Here is the car as weighed:
Here it is now:

Read my surf novel!
If the drivers were in their cars, and we don't know their weights, and fuel content is a guess as well as variables such as tools spare tires. Then the error introduced makes it hard to extrapolate accurate data.
I would suggest that we post the weights of our cars with out driver, and a full tank of gas, spare and tools. To be consistent.
