Default How much do the Camaro hoods weigh?

Does anyone know this? I'm not sure if there are any weight differences between the '93-'97 hoods compared to '98-'02 hoods.

Thats what I was told about the "GM" production "SS" and "WS6" hoods. I also heard that the big aftermarket conteders SCC, ASCD...are not much of a weight reduction.

Like I said don't quote me.

Hopefully I'll have some pics, and weights of my new hood this weekend.

I can also try and weigh my factory formula hood for you guys if you were interested.

MOre than I would have guessed for the 'glass hoods. Although on sencond thought, for a production piece maybe it's not that much. Still curious about the steel hoods.
VFN's hoods are real light for the flat stock style, something like < 15#.
