I'm not sure where that number came from.
I had one fabbed up earlier this year
https://ls1tech.com/forums/drag-raci...rollbar-3.html
The mild-steel one I was going to use weighed in around 67lbs
The CM one I had fabbed up weighed only 39.2lbs, and that included both swing-outs.

The plastic fuel tank on some 98-99 cars weighs 18 lbs. That's what this means. The weight listed is not what lbs. you save but what the actual part weighs itself. Then you would subtract your new part weight from the number to find weight savings.
how much was this brake system 
Plan to spend about 2000 bucks for the brakes, manual master cylinder, brake lines, and ABS delete block. Knock about 400 off for just the brakes.
The rear brakes are supposed to be on the back side of the rotor according to the instructions.

how much does the entire rear hatch weigh with glass????
I'm considering running the VFN fiberglass hatch with a speedglass drop in window....
I think the hatch and the glass (VFN and lexan) is like 18 lbs total... the steel hatch and glass has gotta be like 150 lbs...

I don't know how much it weighs, but the stock hatch is fiberglass. The majority of the weight is the glass itself. There is a firebird hatch across the street from where I work with the glass busted out. I'll see if I can walk over and weigh it tomorrow. I would say a firebird and camaro hatch are close to the same weight and a TA is a solid 40lbs more than both. I've removed all three types and the TA hatch is a heavy sucker.
