Default Guess my weight?

I know iv seen some if these, and I know there's a weight reduction list here, but a lot on that list is pretty un accurate on some things ect...

Car is 2000 SS M6 full interior still

There's no place around here I can get the car weighed so I was just asking if you guys can maybe throw out a guess-timate at me or ball park number lol car has:
No AC condenser removed and all
Sway bar removed
All egr stuff removed
Windshield washer stuff removed
No front or back bumper supports
MWC k member
MWC upper and lower A arms
Viking coilover setup (very noticeably lighter than Koni/strano setup I had)
18lb flywheel
Occasional back seat removal
Added weight of moser 9"

Thanks!

Someone guessing the weight is going to be pretty inaccurate too. Try going to:

Newport Transfer
800 hibbs rd
newport, nc 28570
252-223-3321

It's a public scale that appears to be 30 miles away from you.

Cool thanks for doing some search lol wasn't looking for an exact answer just maybe a round about guess maybe someone had something similar done. These things seem to vary in weight all the time it seems like on here.

You really haven't taken that much of the car. My guess is 3365 given the 9" rear. Getter weighed and let's see

Thanks for the honest quote, I'm just really hoping it's below 3400, I know I havnt taken out much but I have an end goal of 3100 or less without me in it.

With no AC, EGR, AIR, seats besides a Kirkey, BMR kmember and control arms, I weighed 3,435 but that is with an LQ4 iron block, 10 pt cage and procharger.

Car finally went on a real diet.. Braille battery, lexan front and rear, spindles with strange brakes, lots of hole sawing, chasing wires. I've removed 165 lbs. Now if I could just lose the 17 lbs I lost over the winter and put back on at Easter, now ur talking.
