1986 IROC Times

Hey Thirdgeners, haha. What kind of 0-60 times and 1/4 mile times do you think my 305 can pull? I replaced all the exhaust piping including the Y pipe, on back. Its got no cats either, I believe it has 3" piping, but I'm not 100% sure. The guy who did it bends the pipe and all that himself, so I don't know what size pipe he used. It was expensive though, $1400 for the exhaust and muffler, and Monroe Sensatrac suspension all the way around. The previous owner put a large cam in it, I think. I say that because of the way the car idles. It idles way lower and lopier (if thats a word) than a stock 305. At normal operating temp, I idle just about 550 or so. It's also got new plugs and wires, and a new high flow fuel pump. Unfortunately, my motor is paired with a 700r4. I've seafoamed the car within the past 4 months, and change the oil regularly as well as check all the fluids so the car is running well.
