the stock eclipses with no turbo run at around 16.5 to 17 at 80 mph or so.

my guess as to the HP of the chevelle is gonna be 340. i am 99% sure he is right about the 325 stock number, and that would be gross. he isn't going to get much from the mods you listed. and i would guess he would run 14's.

i checked a website about the performance of your car. stock, it was 320 hp, and if you had 3.91 gears, weighed 3452 lbs (stock weight), it ran 13.9's at 102 mph. stock. i figure with the slightly higher gear(numerically lower), but with the torque converter, those two should cancel out. figure you have another 20-25 hp. every hundred pounds is worth a tenth.i am going to guess 13.3 at 105. rough guess, bet i'm close.
