Default weight difference between Manual and Automatic Corvette

I know that the curb weight of the C5 is 3246 pounds...I guess this is for the Automatic, since it was the base transmission. So how many pounds do I take off to figure out the Manual Curb Weight. I have seen some different figures, ranging from 11 pounds to 25 pounds...Anybody know for sure? Thanks, Indy.
