Default quick question

My girlfriends brother has a 73 corvette stingray with a 350sb and a auto trans. Does anybody know what qt mile times he should be running stock? I cant seem to find much info on the factory performance rating of this car. All I found was that it has the 250 hp sb not the lower rated one. Thanks.

High 15's at around 90 mph is in the ballpark for that car stock.
