Default Five Tenths Drop...

I'm looking to trade some parts for a set of mildly ported LT1 heads and intake manifold, no flow sheets. The guy who has them said that the previous owner put them on his cc306 LT1 Camaro and dropped .5 seconds in his quarter mile time.
Does that sound good/reasonable for the parts? Anyone have any guess on hp gains from the ported heads and intake (ballpark, doesn't have to be exact)? Thanks.

it really all depends on how much they were ported right? so idk could be around 60-70hp gain but it could be alot more or alot less

Yeah I just wanted a ball park. Another buddy told me ~50rwhp. I will be more than happy with that.
