Re: Camaro subframe ?'s

Just got off the phone with my friend. I knew he has raced his trucks in the past and figured he may have weighed them at one time. He said the last truck he raced was camaro subframed, 383 stroker, camaro rearend, weighed on DOT scales was 3612. Stock camaro is 3660. So by removing the heavier truck frame section and istalling a lighter camaro subframe the C10 swb fleet with camaro subframe is actually 48 pounds lighter than what the suspension is rated for. Maybe that is the reason this setup handles and corners better.
