WOW, thats light! I may hope to see a few less pounds since I have some other things that lose more weight.

Re: LS1/T-56 Iroc-Z Weight
I thought about going with an iron block just so I wouldn't have to drop the front suspension to get it to sit right....
That's pretty darn light IROC.....wonder what the weight of a comparable Firebird would be......
