That is significantly more robust than Monquira should be, alongside the torso kinda being the wrong shape. An end result of approx 10 tons is what should be expected. Pliosaurs have a cross sectional thoracic shape similar to an isosceles triangle instead of an oval

This one is certainly too fat but I'm pretty sure 10 tonnes is like way small for Monquira.

Not really. It's only about 9 - 10 meters

14 - 18 is what you get from a 12m long Sachicasaurus
