The lighter they are talking about means the total weight of the car. Some sanctioning bodies go by pounds per cubic inch. If there were less cubic inches in the engine, the overall weight of the car got to be lighter.
Example: A car with a 427 at 9 pounds per cubic inch would weigh 3843. Using a 396 at 9 pounds per cubic inch would put the weight at 3564. Quite a difference for a few cubic inches. |
