Marty was at 2950 when he ran the 6.96 ET in the quarter years ago. (I just spoke with him). That being said, he DID put the car on a diet over several years AFTER after that.
As well as better chassis work later on. The 6.95 ET was with the cast iron block/head 406 engine, twin turbos, and fabricated intake, in the chassis done by Jeff Covey, a Pro Mod racer and chassis builder.

Your number is a good number for the ET, the weight, and the engine.
