anyone have stats 0-60 sec? or 1/4 mi for longhood RSR?

I hardly ever read any stats on early RSR longhood replicas, does anyone have any regarding 0-60 mph seconds? or maybe 1/4 mi cababilies? I am thinking maybe a 2300 lb 275 bhp 3.0 liter with maybe 11 inch rears and 9 inch fronts....or maybe even 2600 lbs at 300 bhp.....whatever.....every time I see a write up on Excellence or even on the net...I never get to see stuff like that....what do you pelicans think??

Road & Track magazine tested an original 1973 2.8SR in 1973 and got 5.6 seconds for 0-60 and 13.2 seconds at 105mph for the 1/4 mile. Top end was 178 mph. I have no idea what a replica might do.

I came across a bunch of old car magazines a few years ago, I scanned the interesting stuff.
