Acceration of stock firebird

Where would be a good place to find out the acceleration of a stock 1989 Pontiac Firebird with a 305 TBI with a 700R4 transmission? I'm really mainly interested in acceleration from 60mph to 80mph, but any info would be helpful. Thanks

Joe

0-60 = 7.5-7.9 (depending on your source) for a T-5 305 TBI. I have a test of an '88 Camaro S/C 305 5 speed at 7.5 and a '91 RS 305 5 speed at 7.9. I would estimate a 305 TBI/auto to be very close to 8 seconds...not any faster than that though.
