I will contribute to your post on what a shell weighs with some other weights I have.

Mine weighed 3850 with the following options :

-iron block 440 with aluminum heads,aluminum intake, sheet metal valve covers
-cast iron waterpump housing with aluminum waterpump, steel pullies
-Power steering box/pump/hoses
-aluminum rad + electric fan
-TTI 2x3.5 in headers 3.5x3 in x-pipe, mufflers, 3in tailpipes, tips
-Cast iron master cylinder with disc brake upgrade
-Full stock interior with heaterbox, aftermarket shifter and mild steel 8pt rollbar, insulation in floor/roof, kickpanels, firewall, trunk divider, package tray
-welded in MP frame connectors
-Heavy Duty Dana 60 from a truck...built to stock specs (at least 30-40lbs heavier than the std car D60)
-Weld Pro Stars on all 4 corners with 225/70/15 BFG radials up front & 295/65/15 MT drag radials out back
-11in drum brakes on the Dana
-SS leaf springs
-Stock gas tank Full of 93 octane

*Basicly nothing done to lighten the car....hence the name Black Pig

Ah yes, but that could just be the one pig charming enough for Jules Winfield. (it's an inside joke for all the Pulp Fiction fans)

 That is one beautiful "Pig"

What amazes me is that the new Challenger is 4200lbs and so much shorter.

Stock gas tank Full of 93 octane

How much is that Ron? about 18 gallons or so? That would then be in the ballpark of 110 lbs

A little ot, since it is not a charger....

A guy here in Norway has a Cuda with:
XV level II front and rear suspention/ subframes
XV Level II brakes front/ drums rear

Honestly I'm surprised it's not heavier than 3850.

Mike, that's just the car weight without me in it. Raceweight was 4100 with me in the car with helmet and protective clothing 

It's even heavier now with the addition of the new World cast iron block. I've added a few things but taken some weight out so things have changed somewhat but i'm sure it's over 3900 w/o me in it. I need to rescale the car 

Changes since last "weigh-in" 

-World block & 572ci rotating assembly
-Aluminum waterpump housing replaced the factory cast iron piece
-Aluminum master (Willwood) replaced factory cast iron unit
-March billet pullies/brackets replaced the stock steel stuff
-Mallory 250gph fuel pump & braided lines replaced the stock plumbing
-CalTrac Monoleafs & bars replaced the SS springs

Yep that was with a full tank of gas (18 Gallons) so at ~6lbs per gallon we're looking at 110lbs or so. At least the weight is over top the back tires which helps with a traction limited car
