Times for a stock '86 305

I recently obtained a stock (AFAIK) '86 Camaro SC 305, with 4bbl. It has 86500 original miles, runs in good mechanical shape. I'm just curious as to what the 1/4 track times range from. I've heard mid 16s or so.. ?
I'm not looking to make it a fast car I already have a '93 Lightning that runs mid 14s with just bolt-ons. I may look to make it slightly quicker, but want numbers to start from.

with 155@4200 hp and 245@2000 tq, and i think you should have 2.73's in the rear i think low 16's is the range.

I say a mid 16 is about right.

Back when my Camaro was basically a stock LG4 (the donor car was an '86 SC), it ran 16.8 at this altitude. Mods included a JC Whitney PROM, better cat-back (from a '91 GTA), open-element air cleaner (worth about .2 sec over the stock single-snorkel), secondary rods/hanger & the intake in the sig (intake was worth about .05 sec), and base timing advanced to 6 degrees. Tires were 225/60Rx14's (about 24" tall).

Converted to sea level for elevation only, that's 15.6's.
