take off everything you can live without, and mount most of what's left over farther back.. moving a 50lb battery from the front of the engine bay to the trunk is a 100 pound front to rear weight swing, and moving it from the driver's side of the car to the passenger side helps offset the weight of the driver.
does the hood really need all that bracing underneath it, or could you afford to just get a lighter fiberglass hood in place of the steel one? and aluminum radiator is lighter than a stock copper/brass unit, but some of that weight loss may be negated by extra coolant if it has more capacity. do you have AC- and if so, could you live without it? this is all weight taken from the front of the car without taking anything away from the rear..
