Substituting with for Cluster with Chinook, the closest sub I have.
The addition is at 10 min, Flavor?. The IBU contribution of Chinook is double that of Cluster.
Do I calculate addition based on IBUs of weight of hops?
 
You could either double the cluster so IBUs stay the same or just add by weight and make up the IBUs in your bittering addition. My choice would be doubling the cluster because it has a considerably milder flavor than Chinook.
