DCTs are heavier than Autos. The GT500 has huge brakes that weigh more than the Camaros brakes. It also has more power than a ZR1 that's 300lbs heavier than the base C7.Official specs:

The 3944 is the regular ZL1 with auto
4100 is the vert
3820 for the ZL1 1LE which I am assuming is manual. I saw 3830 listed somewhere as well. The regular ZL1 auto adds 60 pounds, so I think that's a fair assesment of additional weight for the 1LE as well.
425lbs heavier than a GT350 sounds in line with the weight gains from cooling and a 755hp+ supercharged engine when you take into account the bigger brakes and heavier DCT (125lbs between them based off the difference from the C7 to ZR1). Then again, if the ZR1 had iron rotors like the GT500, it would be more than 300lbs heavier.
I guarantee a ZL1 will weigh more than 3,944 with a DCT, the ZR1s supercharger and required cooling for an additional 100hp, and larger brakes needed to slow it down.
