82 with carb'd 13b quick?

I was wondering how fast a 82 gsl with a s4 na engine, weber carb, exhaust and header would be. If anyone has this set up, let me now what 1/4 you ran.

I have a GSL-SE with a Holley carb and it's quite fast. an S4 should be even quicker. Get it well tuned and you should be able to run high 13's, definatley low 14's

I have a '74 4 port 13B, streetport, webber 48 IDA, RB full race exhaust in my 1980 SA. (see sig below)

Dynoed at 168 RWHP (with a high rpm misfire beacuse of bad wires)
So, say about 200 flywheel hp.

RWHP is a better barometer that trap times imho because 1/4 mi times are also dependent on weight/traction which you did not mention.
