ss/gt wieght

I am tring to fiqure the correct total weight for my combination. Is this correct , I have a base model 1983 camaro and am looking at the 1969 350/255hp combination factored to 294hp. The rule book states you have to use the heaviest combination for the year of body being used and if I am thinking correctly I would then use the berlinetta with an automatic which going by the classification guide shows 11.53 factor and 273 hp which gives me a wieght of 3148lbs. Next I should divide this by the factored 294hp which gives me a wieght break of 10.70. At this point I'm assuming I need to add 170lbs to the curb wieght of 3148, which gives me the weight of 3318lbs. Did I do this correctly and if I did is this the minium wieght I can run? Thanks in advance for any and all input.
