3020 wow! I'm surprised. I'm skeptical about whether the local truck/ dump scale is all that accurate.
Measured on my Longacre corner weighting scales, mine weighs 3130 without me in it, 1/2 tank of fuel, harness bar, race seat, LG longtubes, no cats, stock Ti, and 17x11 / 17x12 CCW Classics.

These truck scales are +/- 20 lbs typically. I know for damn sure mine is accurate they get tested monthly and I work for a publically traded company that requires everything to be on the up and up.

Thanks...I'm hoping it will go 8.90s in winter air...
Its a porker for sure.. And that's on my light wheels (CCWs)
When its on the stock chrome speedlines with 275/305s its another 60lbs heavier.. So 3660lbs in street trim.
A few months after I weighed it on the CAT scales, I weighed it at the drag strip with in full street trim with a little more fuel and it was 3670lbs... So pretty consistent with the CAT scale.
I really which I could lighten it back up but......

Yes,
+100lbs for iron block, 4" steel crank
+100lbs for all of the blower stuff, and there is a LOT of stuff with it.
+70lbs for 6 point roll bar
+30lbs for 3" stainless catback (over TIs)
+X amount for auto swap to a 4l60 with all of the heavy drivetrain stuff... (Quick Time bell housing, 3" DSS prop shaft, SFI flex plate/coupler/drive plate) Not to mention the auto and its 3 gals of fluid is pretty heavy.
+X amount for additional oil and tranny coolers and the long stainless hoses filled with fluid, methanol system etc etc.
I'd say its easily 400lbs heavier then a stock one.
