Hmm that is not web ... drat .
I am guessing that is about 15 ns delay.
I am using CPLD's rather than TTL since I don't have get BIG
PCB's made up, as well as the CPLD language is simple logic
equations rather than * Your Favorite big $$$ hardware design
language * as with FPGA's, but it nice to compare what real
TTL speeds are.

While surfing the web for a better way to do a ALU I found a
hardware design for a Pdp 2. http://www.locl.net/homes/pdp2/
While I think using 74XX's is better for vintage hardware so you
have more a idea of realistic timing I wish him good luck.
