[george@ridetech]

You guys might find this information relevant; Ridetech has a whole new list of vehicle weights gathered from our suspension analysis booth that you may have seen at various goodguys shows. Below is an image of all the weights. Though it might be easier to search and sort the weights online at: http://www.ridetech.com/tech/coiltech-2/

We will be adding weights to this database on an ongoing basis. Cheers :cheers:

Thanks for maintaining this. I, for one, really appreciate having a averaged rough estimate to plan around.

As a side note: I'd love to know what was stuffed into the back end of that '68 Camaro with LQ4 from Texas. It's head and shoulders above the other rear 1st gen weights.

I saw that one, and what about the 1967 Camaro above it with the 5.3. Total 2800+ lbs with most being in the rear... Something abnormal here also.

Hrmm, Maybe there was something fishy inside the trunk :_paranoid Not sure whats up with that other 2.8k lbs. Camaro. I double checked the weight sheets and everything seems like it was entered right. I took it off the list to be sure.

Cool info!

I'm surprised with the first gen mustang weights. I thought they were sub 3K though, that was just random reading on the internet.

And 3100 pounds with an iron small block isn't half bad...

Not really, Its a cast iron block SBF, just everything we have done has had weight in mind. It gets 90lbs lighter when the interior comes out and the race seat goes in. All steel body.
