1SC Stripper's weight? I didnt know where to ask this so I thought I'd try here. I have a 01' Z28 with the 1SC option (hardtop, no TCS, crank windows, manual locks, !rear defrost, cloth seats) and I was wondering if anyone knew how much lighter it would be compared to a Camaro with normal options...if anybody knows that'd be great!

I could be completely out of line here,
but I seem to remember that the power windows are lighter than the manual windows (might break even after taking the wires into consideration)
T-tops where a 12 lb option,
Manual locks are probably worth 10 lbs total
lack of tcs is probably 5 lbs,
cloth instead of leather is probably 10-15 lbs
all in all, the 1sc is more of a money saver than a huge weight saver.

i'm not so sure about that. My car is a 1SC car with options (decently rare)
There are TONS of little things youd never expect that will add up. I dont have power door locks, windows, cloth seats, MANUAL rear hatch, no panel to open rear hatch, no cruise control, no TCS, No fog lights...the more you go through the car the less **** you realize it has. I really dont see how a power window can weigh more then a manual window, I took out the power window motor of my old v6 car and the arm and motor are decently heavy not taking into accomidation the wiring on both doors. That may not sound like much but ever pound counts.
