Only things I can think of that would make it heavier is the motor, sway bar (stock), larger rotors and brakes, radiator, fans, larger transmission. Oh inflated ego

I thought about the swap but ended up buying a completely bone stock Z with onl 54k original mile sfor under 7K and selling my V6 for 5K. So, the total for the swap and getting T-Tops cost me 2k

Oh, and I assume the reason a lot of the V6 f-body guys want to do this conversion so bad is to avoid higher insurance rates for the V8. Not a good idea if you wreck the car someday and the insurance adjuster sees the good ol LT1 under the hood of your V6 car. Don't think they won't screw you for insurance fraud

if you want to learn
sell your car for $4k
buy a Z with high miles for $5k
rebuild the whole thing to a 383 or 355
you may pay an extra grand or two, but learn SO MUCH MORE

but the camaro v6 is considered a sports car....v8 is still considered a sports car....with some companies doesn't it just matter if it's considered a sports car....not size of motor?

As for the weight difference my car is more like a 1LE Camaro.
I have no options what so ever, no foglamps, no power windows, no power seats, no t-tops...
in 3 hours of weight reduction I almsot had the car under 3,000, I had it at 3020. But average street trim its about 3150-3200(only weight reduction spare and jack)
How many z28s have you seen near that?
Z28s come with alot of options standard that my basic v6 does not have.
