For the life of me I can not find this answer. I thought for sure in the owners manual, but no luck. Thanks!

Take a look on the side of your door at the sticker. It should say your GVW. I am pretty sure that they measured that with full tank of gas and 4 passangers. If I remember correctly mine said 41xx lbs. And on my SLP birth certificate my car is said to weigh 34xxlbs. I'll double check both those numbers.97 SS #C007

A t-top 97 TA is right around 4460-5000 lbs. They will vary quite a bit from car to car.
Edit: OOPS! I meant to say 3460-3500! DAMN!, how in the world did I type 4460-5000 lbs!!
Most LT1 TA's will weigh right around 3460-3500 lbs WITHOUT the driver. Like wolfy said, this is called the curb weight. Titles and the label inside your door jam usually list the GVWR. This is not the curb weight. It the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. This is the recommended maximum combined load to be placed on both the rear axle and the front suspension.
I took my 97 WS6 to a local iron yard that had a scale. They said it was accurate to within 10 lbs. w/o me and w/o the spare tire and jack, mine weighed 3440 lbs.Comment

Well, the title on my '94 says 4308lbs. I doubt that is right though.Richard Harvey Jr.

curb weight is what you want. best thing to do is pull into a weigh station when nobody is there and ask them to weigh you...Originally posted by NorthernSS
Weight Definitions
Actual Weights
There are several different types of weights. First, there are actual weights. These include:
Curb Weight: The weight of the vehicle including standard equipment, oil, lubricants and a full tank of fuel. Does not include optional contents or other optional equipment, the weight of driver, passengers or cargo
Option Weight: The weight of any added equipment that is not included in the base curb weight
Passenger Weight: Defined as 150 lbs. multiplied by the number of seating positions, including the driver, that the vehicle can carry
Payload:
Gross payload is defined as the weight of all passengers, options and cargo
Net payload is defined as the weight that can be placed in the truck after subtracting for passengers, optional equipment and cargo.
Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW): The weight of the vehicle including passengers, options and all cargo
The Goldens: Reno and Rocky

Here's the weight from WS6.com, a 96 T/A WS6. He calls 3760 to be the curb weight
http://www.ws6.com/mycar.htm
When you click on the 3760 you get the scale print out here which I believe includes the drivers weight.

With a few puts and takes... weight removed for weight reduction, and weight added with the roll bar, and other upgrades, my Formula was 3,760# on the scale at the local track (scale had just been certified for the NHRA Nationals), with me in it. I'm about 180# (at least I was at the time). I have never been able to understand why this car is so heavy. I've since taken out a bunch of stuff (bumper pads, exhaust, carpet padding, complete audio system, etc. and I've still only been able to get it to 3,635#. My friends 30th SS convertible is down to 3,525# with him in it, and he is at least 250#.Fred

I think the ls1 cars are lighter anyway.

got my emissions and it spat out 3790#
I guess that's with the tech inside, 3/4 of fuel, and 150# of stereo..

With the aluminum block of the LS1's you would assume they would be alittle lighter but they aren't. I've watched lots of f-bods getv on the scale at San Antonio Raceway and they are usually in the range of 3460-3500 lbs curb weight.
A 2002 M6 WS6 is listed from GM at 3495 lbs curb weight.
