What have you done so far?
Here's a list of what everything weighs:

Decide what you can live without and go at it.... AC, ABS, tubular k-member and A-arms, light weight wheels and tires, rear seat and harnesses, light weight carpet, racing seats, etc.......Fred

There was a post from another forum posted on here that suggested folding the back seats down. You should look for that thread it was very helpful.1999 Ram Air Trans Am. M6
SFC( not sure what kind), drilled/slotted rotors, K&N air filter, all free mods, 3" Borla cat back exaust, electric exaust cut out, NGK spark plugs, royal purple motor oil, and Zaino .Maybe more. I find more stuff done to it everytime I look at it.

well a couple of things you could do is stop eating sweets...pops deffinately..step up your daily excersize plan a little bit..and pray..im just kidding, that was a joke..all of it..
but i know a couple things your could do to loose some weight..your car.....take out your back seats and back rest, you probably dont carry passengers in the back being there is no room..also, you could get a tubular k member that is much much lighter then the stock hunk of steel..and other stuff like that.. i myself am worried about that too, but not right now, im still tryin to figure out why my car wont start..damn thing
