Nothing in there adds any more power to a stock engine. All those parts do is help keep the engine running longer in case factory parts fail. The only thing that's a power improvement is the overbore of the engine.

Well stock 87 350 cars with tpi would run 14.5-15.0. So do the math cause I hate math

That might drop you down into the high 13's or low 14's. If you want to know what it will run, you need to take it to a track. No two cars are exactly alike. A guess is just a guess. Most of the time, guesses are much quicker than what it will really do.

If you give me some real dyno numbers and how much the race weight is, car, driver, fuel etc, I'll tell you how fast you should go.
