How much weight?

Hi.

Im going to try to add some lead tape to my K-Factor Team racquet. Positions will be a 3 and 9 oclock.
My question is how much weight I should add..?

I want the racquet head afterwards to feel somewhere in between my current K-Factor Team and the new Kblade 98.
The specs of my current racquet is even balance and a swingweight of 325. Total weight strung is 10.9 oz.
The same specs of the Kblade 98 is 3pts head light and swingweight is the same...Total weight strung, 11.1 oz.
So with that in mind, how much lead tape do I add, to get a racquet that feels somewhere in between those two?

Sorry for the complicated explanation.

btw, how long does lead tape normally last?

Thanks,
Daniel

ok add 4 grams to the 3 and 9 assuming ur using 1/4 in. lead tape which would be 4, 4in. pieces, after adding that to the 3 and 9 add 5 grams of lead to the handle, bottom of the handle preferably, after adding that it should be pretty good weight making around 3pts. head light and around 11ozs.
 
but by your suggestion, wouldnt that make my current as head light as the Kblade tour 98? I wanted my racquet to be somewhere in between...

You'll probably have to replace it on occasion, but not very often...unless it gets damaged. I've had the same tape on mine for 6 months, and I don't think I'll need to replace it for a while.
