Default what will it run? (sorry)

yea... it weighs a little more than an S197 but has IRS and a little more RWHP ( probably, freshly built motor, built for the S/C ) idk about 280... that was before i talked to the guy. he said he put blower pistons, blower cams, the works in there..... i wouldnt be surprised if it was 300+rwhp.

there it is

but if you don't, that IRS is gonna give you lots of trouble
