I put 140mph down for my max speed, and 4500 for max power rpm.

The speed depends on ratios and engine speed.

Your LS1 will probably have max power at around 5500 rpm though, my engine is pretty basic. Here is a power curve for an LS1.

As for axle weights, for the Dax they are 620, 820 and 1440, but I've seen higher.

also it seems people are being asked to prove that they built the car, is it worth posting a few pictures and invoices too?

Ricky,

Take a look here.

I don't think you answer the question on when it was built or registered.

Andi.
