Help 70 challenger weight?

I'm building a new car for next year. A 70 challenger with a nos 500 big block.the car has fiberglass hood,decklid,bumpers,valance panels.
The motor is a truck block 70440. And I have a 4.15 crank and the heads are stage 6 with some port work by muscle motors. Here is the question? What do you think it will weigh with a 10 point cage, and that do you think it will run?

Default track.

THANKS FOR THE REPLY AND YES. I HOPE TO RUN MORE TRACKS THAN JUST BANDIMERE. THE CAR Won't BE READY, HOPE TO BE OUT NEXT YEAR BY THE MOPAR EVENT AT BANIDIMERE IN JUNE OF 2004. THIS IS ALSO MY STREET CAR. THE CAR WILL HAVE A SOLID CAM .672 LIFT AND A 1050 DOMINATOR CARB. THE MOTOR MADE 781 HP AT 6200 RPMS AND NOW I HAVE A TRANSMISSION TO BUILD AND FINISH THE BODY WORK, THIS WILL HAVE A 300 HP SHOT IN IT AND 4.30 GEARS IN A 9 INCH WITH LADDER BARS AND THE STOCK FLOOR. THE TIRES ARE 29.5/13.5/15 WITH COIL OVERS. ON THE BOTTLE I WOULD LIKE TO SEE 9.30S IN THE 1/4 MILE. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
