Rob, So you state that your GTS weighs in at 3506. I have shaved approx 202+ lbs from the car. Therefore my car should weigh in at approx 3304 lbs. T

They're not talking smack if they've actually weighed their engines and can document it.


I probably spent about 2 hours compiling that list of component weights, it's just not that hard to do. I don't understand why there isn't a similar list for every enthusiast engine out there, god knows there are enough people with engine pieces and a decent postage or refrigerant scale.
