Not that I really know.. but there were so many engine, transmission and rear end options in those years the stock times are probably all over the place.

let me know what you think. . .
Thankx

Welcome back, I don't know much about track times but my wife's Honda Accord is faster and quicker than my stock 1980, 
but we look better in the vette 
. BTW your in the correct section. Beware of the Post Police, they probably are'nt allowed to talk at home. Nobody listens to them there either
