My friend that bought my 2002 1SC stripper hard top had it weighed earlier this year... 3480 with the nitrous system on a race star drag pack and full tank. Nitrous kit with the 15lb bottle and all the accessories was 60lbs. Only thing removed was !AIR and spare tire. So without the Nitrous and a less fuel, 3380 or so. Pretty sure the full Kooks True Dual exhaust is a little heavier then stock too. It was rated 3380lb stock...most F-bodies were 3450, WS6 cars were the heaviest. Shouldn't take a whole lot to get theses cars into the 3200 range. K-member, rear seat delete, light battery, spare tire, air, wiper motor and fluid tank, a/c, fiber hood...etc would get you pretty close.

My 02 WS6 was 3260 with bolt ons weight savings on stock wheels. I don't think it has a front sway bar either.

I still have wipers and fluid tank, jack/spare, ac, rear seat. I'm not really looking to do much more wr. But i do think a comfortable fcar could be had in the 28xx range. It would just be more extreme street STRIP car than I'm looking for. My car is built around improving overall performance.
Well whoever's that was you were racing. I mean it ran 9s right.
Side question for Doug, what does a gen 1 coyote car (11-14) have to run with bolt ons and the auto to be a good build in your eyes. Say standard weight reduction like spare, exhaust, etc. Nothing serious for weight loss and on 93 octane. I'm not looking for an argument or anything like that I just want to know what you would say it "proper" for a LBO car to run. Does it need to run a 10 second pass to be a solid LBO car in your eyes? Again I'm just curious.
My 02 WS6 was 3260 with bolt ons weight savings on stock wheels. I don't think it has a front sway bar either.

3,290? LIGHT! S550 or newer Camaro weighs over 400 lbs more. In case of Hio its ~600 lbs different. ‘The crew’ would lose it mentally trying to race a 37xxlb car. YOU ALL know it too but too much of a virgin to admit it. Hio runs 12s full bolt ons ls6 swapped at 3700lbs....... Chris you just run your mouth trying to be cyber friends with Hio because ‘Chevy’ life. Lmao

or 10 speed in it. Would make up for the weight penalty in the quarter easily.

He fails to realize this. He also fails to understand that jayplay weighed his s550 to be 36xx. He has also failed to run his own 5br0.......he's pretty much just a complete failure.

Jay has a base. Performance package is in the 37xx range. I see that weight is a sensitive topic around the crew in here. Dont worry Hio.. youll never know what heavy weight means as long as you keep trimming your rotors
#4878
BMR scaled a MT82 performance package at 3730lbs. Them Coyotes sure do move that heavy body though unlike you, you needed to shave weight off to become somewhat relevant in the 1/4 mile. And Chris... you’re irrelevant in here just a fyi.

5th gen even heavier,terrible gearing and ran neck and neck with GEN1 and 2(M6 vs M6). One reason they run well is the gearing. The motor is big and heavy. The new Coyote with no tick with the 10 speed and boost is insane though.
