I will have to go back an look at the numbers...or, just wait until we drive it here in a few days.

No need to look back on my account as it is all academic for me at this point anyway. I had assumed the difference in weight would have been on the order of 100 to 200 pounds. For the tuneability and responsiveness that should result from the 300% increase in stiffness I would deal with the extra 40 pounds. If 40 pounds were that big a deal I would loose the weight myself.
