Default 5.7 or hemi?

Just would like to know where I stand with a hemi. The following is my best time.

60ft.... 2.07
1/8..... 9.34@74.11
1/4..... 14.6@ 93.19

no nos, just bolt-ons. The truck is a 97 RCSB 5.7, auto and stock 3.73 gears, PCM, headers, no cats, magnaflow dumped, E-fans, MSD6AL and blaster coil with wires. Thanks for any input.

I think most people report that a Hemi reg cab truck runs around mid-low 15's stock. A few can get into the 14's so you pretty much got one beat. BTW really nice times for your truck and an awesome 60'.

Times in my sig are with long tube headers, CAI, Magnaflow Exhaust, and Superchips Programmer. 3.92 gears, 20" 82lb tires, race weight 4950lbs. What's your weight at?

Your 60' is great, mine was a 2.1, your 1/8mile is on par with mine, but your losin steam on the top end, that's where the hemi flys.

Hope that helps.

With your current mods, you will take just about every stock hemi, but with just headers, a cold air intake, superchips, and an exhaust cutout mine ran 13.9 @ 99mph.

Well maybe this month @ the track I'll get to race one, I never get lucky enough to get next to one at a light to have a little fun. One more question, whats the difference between the rumble bee and a regular Hemi?

No performance difference between the 2. The Rumble Bee kit just has some styling mods that a regular rc/sb hemi doesnt come with.
