The article is in Grassroots Sep/Oct 98 issue and titled "Sassy Chassis - Adding
Muscle to Your TR3 and TR4 Chassis", page 75.  The author reports a weight of 
"162
pounds, of which the basic gussets added 5 pounds."

The author made a nice setup to moving the frame around and rotating it my
attaching an engine stand to each end.
