Shane, I think there's some info in the Tech Database concerning this, but there is a good difference between the 2 (the 1-piece steel DS weighs less than the 2-piece, so you can figure the 1LE weighs even less than that).

Hey Shane,
the two piece DS weighs 27lbs and when i replaced it w/ the 95 T/A (steel) DS i picked up 4 mph in the 1/4 mile and the steel ds weighed about 17 lbs. I could definitaly feel a change in the power between the 2, on and off the track.
PS i need to get the 1LE ds.

When i removed my 1-piece steel ds i could certainly tell a weight difference from the 1le ds. On the road the trottle response feels slightly stronger/crisper. Could be my sotp-o-meter, so i will be going to the track again for a comparison.<a href=\"http://groups.msn.com/WhoisNightRider/bluethunder.msnw\" target=\"_blank\">2002 Electron Blue Corvette Coupe</a><br /><i>13.083@108.23</i><br /><br /><a href=\"http://groups.msn.com/WhoisNightRider/redfire.msnw\" target=\"_blank\">2002 Metallic Red Grandprix GTP</a> <b>SOLD</b><br /><i>14.49@94.42 (Bone stock)</i><br /><br />2002 Black Convertible Camaro Z28<br /><i>times comming real soon!</i>
