Looking for ways to remove weight off front end of super stocker. Is block lightening legal for super stock? Anyone done this- how much weight did you save?

I have looked at Wells Racing site but they only list SBC programs listed. There are 3 other places in PA and LSM that I have found.

Does anyone know if it is legal?

Also, has anyone done it to a Dart sportsman BBC? What was the weight savings?

the last time I ask about this in a s/s car I was told no! that was about 3 years ago . so unless things have changed it's not legal

Weston Machine in NJ does block lightening. Not sure of cost or weight savings. Would have to think that is not legal. But a lot of things ain't.
