Experience certainly plays a HUGE role when out on the track (and the nerves start setting in).

He "should" have enough car to take the chevelle, but.....

Heck, I have a similar setup in mine; TE44, MSD50's and mine runs 12.5's all day long on street radials (not stickies), and this on 93 octane pump gas (no alky).
One big difference though, I have a big V2 sitting out front. Don't know how much difference that would be

But if, and it's a big if, he can get some good tires/slicks, and launch hard with GOOD race gas, race chip, etc. He should be able to pull some low 12's.

Oughta be close none-the-less.
