1984 z28 350 5 speed manual Hard top No a/c Two racing seats, no back seats No stock dash, controls, blower motor heater core NOTHING except for an aluminum dash. Fiberglass hood Manual windows No wiper motor or charcoal canister Just curious, car feels really light and sits up a bit higher than stock all the way around

Any other info you guys need?

 

Somewhere between 3200 and 3800lvs

that's my WAG

 

2850

 

^ that's light!

 

sounds like he has it stripped down pretty good-stock it was probably ~3200

 

Most I have seen actully weigh closer to 3500lbs

of course amount of fuel and with or without driver are 2 major variables.

Only way to know for sire is to hit the scales.

 

Hardtop 5 speed with hardly any options? 3500? Of course without me in it!

 

That would be nice!

 

This summer I was trying to get a tenth off my ET to qualify for an ET-restricted class, so I pulled a bunch of stuff out. '82 Berlinetta, LS1/4L60E, 10-bolt, no AC (does have heat), passenger and rear seats removed, door panels removed, spare tire and jack removed, rear cargo cover removed, rear carpet removed, hood blanket removed, all junk in the console storage removed. Berlinetta rims (pretty light) with Hoosier 26x9.50-14 Quick Time Pro DOTs on the rear (really light), 185x70-14 highway radials on the front (fairly light). Just enough gas in the tank to keep the pump from cavitation. With me, it weighed 3200 lbs.

I had stock dash w/CD stereo, you don't. You have GFX, I don't. I have aluminum block and heads, you don't (assume you don't - you didn't mention that). I have thin-tube headers and no cat, not sure if you have cat. You have a fiberglass hood, I don't. I don't know about a T5, but I know a T56/flywheel/clutch weighs more than a 4L60E/flexplate/10" lock up torque converter.

I'd guess you're at least at 3200 lbs w/o driver.

 

I have shorty edelbrock headers, no cat, 3 inch stainless exhaust. 3200 with you in it is pretty light! I heard the t-5 is at least 100lbs lighter than a 700r4 but the t-56 is about the same as an automatic, I'm really not sure..
