I don't know for sure, and mine isn't completely stock, but I'll be at the track in a couple weeks and I'm interested to know as well. I'll report back, I have to assume its close to stock weight

Mine weighed 3880 without driver. Should be relatively close to stock weight.

Ive only done that once though


Yea it has a blower as well as a 5 gallon intercooler cell in the trunk. On second thought it's probably a fair amount heavier than stock. The 8.8 is heavier, blower is heavier. I wonder how much lighter(if at all) the ls7 is than ls6, and what my coilover and LS9 clutch and flywheel setup is compared to stock stuff. Maybe what my car weighs is irrelevant to this convo

Next time I'm at my base I'll fill up and get my car weighed. It will be plus sub and two car seats but I know what that stuff roughly weighs

I have a truck scale nearby that's accurate within ~5 lbs. It's been a while, but mine was just a hair under 4k lbs with half a tank and me in it.
