My formula tipped the scales at 3440 without me.. I have Umi K-member and lower control arms, no rear seat, no powersteering or ac, no windshield washer,
but I do have a LQ block, and a Th350, with a Moser 12, so I guess that is where it is coming from.. Btw this was on my ZR1 wheels, 17x11 rear, 17x10 fronts..
I am looking forward to some race wheels, and maybe taking alittle more out of the car, to save some weight..
I also have no front bumper support.. but its not a DD either..

wow my car didnt weight that with just the spare tire and rear seats out w/ a 1/4 tank of gas... at least on the scales I was on... it went 3420. I want to get my pig down to around 3100 and keep the a/c... I'ma get rid of everything I can but the a/c and radio.

Mine isn't even close to that! You should be able to sell light weight packages like that with no problem. Just show them the video.
Used to do it when I had my old M6.
