would a 1969 camaro weigh with the ls1 motor and t56 trans and a full tank of gas?? this is with a full standard 69 interior.

 

TTT

 

Not sure what mine wieghs yet, but I'll let you know as soon as I find out.

 

Man, I have no idea on that one. I could guess, but that would be of little use. But TTT for you anyway.

 

Early Camaro's were "generally" around 3100 ot 3200 lbs. If you subtract the diff. between the LS1 and the standard SB. you should be in the 2900 to 3000 lb area, maybe less.

 

Im gonna second the vote for 2900-3000. Thats the wieght with the larger (230 ci?) six cylinder, so i think thats a pretty good guess.

 

thanx guys for your posts. yea let me know when you get it weighed.

 

we talking 3200lbs with full tank of gas? I didnt realize my car was that light

 

That would be for a bare bones 6.
I would add at least 1000+ more for a small block and more for a big........
A vert will weigh more too.......

 

Someone I know just weighed their 69 SS350 with full tank, spare tire and it came it right at 3500 lbs. Depending on options, figure on somewhere around 3300-3500. Subtract from that the weight difference of the LS1 vs a standard small block with cast iron intake, heads and exhaust manifolds. I would imagine you'd come in around 3000-3200 lbs with the LS1.

 

my 67 ss with a 350 and 1\3 tank of gas. no spare tire. weighed in at exactly 3469 lbs.

so how do u guys figure 2900 with an ls1? their not that much lighter :P

 

it cant be that much of a difference... Ls1 is aluminum but its still roughly the same size.. 150 lbs lighter? but would the t-56 be heavier than a standard muncie 4 speed?

 

My car was originally a 6 cyl, with a 3 speed, and a standard interior, with no options. My title says 2900 lbs, which is what I assume it originally wieghed in at. Ive done nothing to add weight aside from the drivetrain, so Im gonna say around 3k lbs.
