I cant find a whole lot of info on the weights of these cars. Nothing definate atleast. Ive seen from 2900-3400lbs for weights for these. I am curious in guessing what mine will weigh with the LS1/T56 swap, and completely gutted interior. Any ideas?

My '67 Camaro with sbc 350 aluminum heads, manifold & water pump along with a 2004R trans. 12 bolt rear weighed 3180# with half a tank of gas.

Mine weighed 3026 before I installed the Vintage Air, but the compressor was on it at the time. LS2 T56 no rear seat, and Recaro one piece seats.

So i have an ls1/t56, 8.5 rear, sfc, trac bars, no interior, 4th gen front seats, just an alternater for accessory, and i do have heat. Do you think i can get my weight down to 2900lb? My car was origionally an OHC 6 so it has all 6 cylinder springs and such.
