67 Firebird weight

Does anyone here happen to have the weight at each of the four wheels on a stock first gen firebird? I didn't think to scale mine before I disassembled it 9 years ago :rolleyes:

Standard Catalog of Firebird lists the following weights for the 1967 Firebird depending on options:

OHC-6 Coupe 3,260 lbs Convertible 3,571 lbs
V8 326 Coupe 3,323 lbs Convertible 3,615 lbs
V8 400 Coupe 3,549 lbs Convertible 3,855 lbs

Good luck!

Thanks for the info. I sure wish I would have scaled mine. It is a OHC-6 coupe that I some one put a 455 into the front. I Guess I'll just use the weight of the 400 coupe to get me close. I haven't been able to find a weight bias on a Firebird either. I did find a few references that stated the first gen. Camaro's at 51/49% with a CG height of 20" at stock ride height. I would assume the Firebird would be a little heavier on the front end. I plan on lowering my car at least 2". I guess I could use these numbers to get close on my suspension and just build in some adjustability.
