Default CRX Fuel tank weight?

Im building my semi-drag car and i want to use a 5 gal fuel cell instead of the stock fuel tank to reduce weight into my '90 CRX, so i need to know how many weight im going to reduce.

Anyone here know the weight from a CRX 88-91 fuel tank?

20 pounds AT MOST

The metal is thin as ----

I got a brand new one from my insurance company, surprised me how light it was actually

fuel cell is pointless

Door panels, bumper supports, a/c, power steering, basically anything thats not needed. You can do a number under the dash too; hell,cut out half the dash

Bumper supports, good idea!!, i only wish bumpers dont fall down.

A/C --- done
Power stering ---- done
Eliminate muffler and leave open downpipe only ---- done
remove passenger seat --- done
no rear cover --- done
no extra tire --- done

Are you going to be nitpicking on every ounce possible to lose from the car itself? Could always ditch that pass. mirror too. lol
