I'm in the Temecula area of SoCal and want to weigh my 914 to see how much weight I gained going to a water cooled 6. The only place I can think of is the county dump which is 45 min's away. Any tips? And, does anyone know the curb weight of a 73 2.0, no AC? BTW, was the factory curb weight figured wet?

Took your advice Marv and weighed in at Rcho Metals. Their truck scales registered 2340lbs. I don't have the previous curb weight (ie, everything in the car but the driver and a full gas tank) but it was a 73 with appearance group and had been converted to a 2.0-4, so I have no idea what it was in that configuration. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Not sure about the accuracy of truck scales either the but it's close enough. So, somewhere between 300-350lb weight gain. I'd bet that 50 of those lbs are the addition of the stabilizers, P205's and the Engman kit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
