Of course trying to run a number is fine if that is what you want to do but beware if you walk on the edge sometimes you fall off.

Try 5,000-5,500 pounds. Here's a pic of my old 82 LeSabre hearse. I dropped a Buick 455 into it.I also used to have 69 Caddy ambulance that tipped the scales at 7,000. Yeah thats a seven as in 3&1/2 tons.

I don't think it would be all that fast with the LC2. No matter what you hung on it for a turbo and IC. The problem would be keeping the tune on it. You'd be popping HGs left and right. It's the weight. What would be great at 15 pounds would be a disaster at 20 plus pounds of boost. I know. Try making a heavy hot air Riviera go fast with out the gimmick IC.
