I agree with Dragsinger. My Coronet is 3708lbs. 50.3F/49.7R as she sits today. I went from one battery in the rear to two, and found nor lost ET. On a leaf car, it can help, but if you have CalTracs, you can simply tune the hit to get nearly the same effect as moving weight within reason.

With that said, anything you can do to make the front end react quicker will help on short times in general. Before working to move weight, ensure you have a good, free moving front end setup with 5'-5.5" of travel. When I replaced the stock hood with the glass hood, I did pickup about .03-.04 in 60' times, with a near 50lb weight reduction off the nose. I have about 15-20 lbs of undercoating that can come off the front fenderwells and areas before the firewall. I suspect taking that off the front is worth more than adding 50lbs to behind the rear axle.

Adding weight is far easier than removing weight, however, if you choose to add, ensure you comply with all your retention requirements.
