Default Tipped the scales

I got the car weighed today at the 301 Truck Stop. The car weighs 3420# with me in it, full tank of gas, and spair tire/jack. Does this seem high/low for what I got done to the car?

Sounds a little on the light side to me.

Sounds a bit light to me, too. But that's a good thing.

I havnt done any weight reductions to the car besides the k-member and a-arms. Having only 6 cylenders helps a little aswell.
