hood insulation

my friend has a 5.0 1986 mustang and he doesnt got a bunch of cash. i heard somewhere that if he takes out the insulation in his hood that his engine will cool faster.. so is this true? or is it just bs? and what else can you take out of the car legally to still lose weight?
thanks alot guys

Re: hood insulation

To lose weight you could take out the passenger seat, back seat, audio equipment, carpet, and spare tire/jack for starters.

also known as the 10 minute tune-up (except the audio and carpet)

hmm, not much i can contribute to that. air conditioning removal is legal and will gain you both horsepower and weight reduction.

Well, it won't gain hp. It will just free up wasted hp.
