How to tell your getting old. You can't even remember how fast your truck is.
Previous was not 13.4 it was 13.388, lol.
My question. How did I gain 2 tenths of a sec. and not pick up MPH.

If you pushing threw the brakes you might think about upgrading your brake lines to SS, they may give you a little more holding power... Also check out your tune and make sure your brake torque managment is 4000+.... Also you might want to log a launch to see if you getting any "False Knock" (which pulls timing) due to brake stalling the verter...

Thanks fellers
I love the converter and the tranny. Previous time was 13.4 @ 100. I thought I should have a higher MPH too. I have gone 101 MPH before. Maybe it's the 26" ET streets, 255/50/16. I was launching around 2500 RPM. It only break stall too 2800 RPM. Maybe a just a little slip on the launch. My best 60 today was a 1.809. The tires are just about shot too. Driver mod, I could stand too loose a few pounds, lol. I think I see some 27" or 28" tires coming soon. I'll let the cold weather get here before I go back. Any suggestions welcomed

I'll try flasing it next time. Is brake torque management different from regular torque management? I have all my torque management turned off.
