Wall speed is higher than clubhead speed. I think my ball speed when I've had it tested is something like 170 (I think) and my clubhead speed is like 117-122.

generally the rule is 1.2-1.5x to figure out ball speed. But that is highy inaccurate way to get a speed approx. due to many factors

I'd say about 85 mph depending on whether the ball speed was measured correctly. The ratio between ball speed and swing speed is around 1.45. BTW, how far do you hit your driver? That would give you good idea whether or not the ball speed numbers are reasonable.
