You gotta be right on this one. No way one guy can be 32XX lb. and another 37XX lb. in essentially stock config.
Official curb wieght for Z28/Z28 Vert. is 3390/3480.

Ive removed the backseat, front bumper support, a/c, air, egr, speakers, radio, exhaust(open headers), drivers airbag(replaced with grant wheel) and my car is at 3300 so the scales must be off i stock it is 3390, i know all of that adds up to more than 90lbs...maybe.

Re: How much do you all weight(cars)?

My 69 weighs in at 3300 lbs without me in it and a full tank of gas and my sub box and the old engine/trans combo. I will weigh my car in a few weeks with the LT1/T56 no subs etc...to see what it weighs. I'm guessing just under 3300 without me and a full tank.

Re: How much do you all weight(cars)?

My '93 Camaro weighs 3448# with my 200# butt in it...With 3/4 tank of gas.

It was weighed at Englishtown Raceway when I was there for GM High Tech's "Bolt-On" LT1 meet.

The car still has the back seat, bumper supports, A/C, etc. It has Weld Draglites and a fiberglass "cowl" hood. The only other weight I've removed has been the front sway bar, and the spare tire/jack.

It's a hard top, standard window, standard lock car.
