Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

You are looking for dead weight removal, not to improve the riding experience so replacing components will cost a lot and accomplish next to nothing. There is no way you can reduce the bike's weight enough to matter by replacing it's components. You need a lighter frame, fork and motor (or a stronger back).
