Default 1/4 mile times

Does anyone have an idea what the 1/4 mile times are on a stock 75-77 L82? Thanks!

If the car is all stock - probably mid 14's to low 15's depending on your rear gear!

Those years have 205 - 210 hp stock when they're brand new.
I doubt these cars could into the 14s, my guess is low to mid 15s.

Could be wrong though, which wouldn't surprise me.
