I plan on pull ALL A/C equipment and emissions equipment. I will be putting in a set of SLP headers and y pipe with a high flow cat. I also will be changing to a T56. No back seats with sparco front seats, Grant GT steering wheel, no spare or jack, and pin on harwood hood. I figure on 200lbs of weight loss with the LT1 and all the lighter better quality parts I am replacing on the car. Does this sound about right? Anyone know normal weight for a 88 Camaro SC with a auto tranny, 305, and almost no options?

 

my 87 iroc with 305 4bbl manual tranny t-tops says around 3400 on the title

 

If your trying to find out the weight of your car then just look at your car's title it should say it there

 

how does an lt1 shave off 200 lbs?

it is to my understanding that an ls1 block weighs 100 lbs less than a standard small block because its made of aluminum

 

With the addition of the lighter LT1, no A/C stuff, much lighter exhaust, no back seats and sparco fronts, lighter steering wheel, no spare or jack, and pin on fiberglass hood I figured 200 lbs was an easy acheivement. You think otherwise?

 

i think all of those may be over 200, your original statment sounded like u meant the lt1 alone was good for 200 lbs

all those items u mentioned sounds around 250 lbs to me

 

a/c alone is about 75lbs if you get every little piece including the evaporator.

 

Hey meangreen I PMed you back about those headers.

I PM'd back. Is the collector 3"? LOL

250lbs sounds good.
