Ok.. I put these numbers in to the Corral's engine dyno and this is what it
came up with. 220 rwh. add 10% for drive train loss and you get 242 at the
crank. I believe the 4.7 is rated at 235 so this is pretty close. I've put
the numbers in from my stang and it was almost dead on and I have the real
dyno sheet so I know what it really makes.

Thanks Ryan, I guess that is right, I have seen a few responses that are
saying the same thing about 3800-3900 for the RT RC, so Maybe like 100
pounds less for me, OK, maybe 3700. I just need to find a weigh station
somewhere. Maybe when I go to the shop to have the dyno test done they can
weigh the thing? They're bound to have scales!

In case it matters...
My '99 R/T RC with all options except A/C and 4 wheel Anti-lock weighs in at
3916 lbs.
This weight is truck only with spare intact and a FULL tank of gas (street
trim).
The 00's probably weigh a little less, but 3300 seems a bit light. I would
think
more along the lines of 3700-3800 but maybe I'm wrong. Anyone weighed their
'00
yet?
