Do you even lift, bro?

Weighed my 1LE after build
This was on 1/3 tank of gas in full trim. I left the tire kit in the trunk, everything in the glove compartment....even my phone/chargers etc.
Below are a current list of mods I've completed on my car as it sits and what she weighed: 3820lbs Package Options: Basically everything but the sunroof and sub options 1LE package 2SS RS Package 7" Touch screen navigation ZL1 dual mode exhaust Interior pedals/cup holder illumination Exterior Modifications Heritage grill Harder 315's on the rear wheels Debadged rear Tinted @ 20% Blacked out all exterior lighting Engine Bay mods TVS2300 w/ overdrive set up FIC 850 injectors RotoFab intake w/ washer bottle relocation Stainless Works L/T headers Pfadt -1 1/4" drop springs AI Competition Chiller PROSPORT EVO wideband and Boost gauges RX catch can w/ breather Intake scoop 1/3 tank: 3820lbs (take out the few items in the car I'd say 3815 is more accurate) Thought she'd be a bit heavier with the maxed out options and the blower on the front and all the beefed up 1LE parts.

Wow. That does seem to be quite a bit lighter than I thought it would be as well. I thought that a regular 2SS weighs in higher than that already. Then you added a blower to the front end and I figured it would take it over 3900 for sure.
I guess you did take the exhaust manifolds off and replace them with headers so I'm sure you shaved some nice weight there. Makes me curious to take mine somewhere to weigh it once I get it and it's all stock. I wonder if it would weigh in at less than 3800 then?

I thought the 1LE started out at 3875 per GM specifications even though all the mags are saying 3860. None of your mods that I can tell should have saved you weight, minus the debadging. I wonder how you pulled this one off.

Exactly....I saw 3860-3870 everywhere.....sadly I did not weight it before the build as I took the above #'s at face value. Either way especially that I have dang near every option...was expecting 3925+ easy

Hmmm. Maybe this is a way to reduce unsprung weight

No...maybe next time though I'm glad I'm not the only one surprised with this weight.
Hopefully someone else with a 2SS/RS 1LE will post a stock weight with 1/3 tank for comparison.

Someone mentioned on my 1LE site thread that his 1SS 1LE was 3750 with a lil more fuel than I had in my 2SS.

Headers actually take off weight off the front end.

I don't remember my exact b4 number I think it was 3885? I know the after number. With all my suspension work was 3878 and that was right under a 1/2 a tank. I also have a 2ss rs with every option and a sunroof in the car :(

Thought for sure I'd have added 50-75lbs with the blower and the AI chiller kit EASILY. Fully loaded blown 2SS with the chiller kit for 3815lbs...I'll take it!
