Went to the Ford vs Chevy shootout yesterday and decided to run the truck. Full weight at 5300 pounds, 95 degree temps, 22's.

60' - 2.07 on 22" street tires
1/4 - 13.602
mph - 105.21

Im a bit puzzled by the mph and the et. I would think that I would be in the lower part of the 13's.

 

Did you win?

Nice MPH btw!

You have the same problem I do. Good MPH but crap ET

 

nice MPH, seems you've got some tuning to do for a lower ET.

 

Looks good!

 

Starting to wonder how much of it is this damn trans and its horrid 1st gear lol.

 

I ended up winning! Went up against the ls1 s10 that was running 12's.

That 6.0 caddy silverado was running 14.05 at around 93 ish with a mostly stock 6.0. He had only a tb stall, long tubes, no cats, and an intake system with a mail order tune. It was a 4wd too.

 

Thats awesome man!

That Organge truck was very cool. I'm not a fan of the grille conversion but the color was sweet and he was defiantely hauling *** for an big heavy N/A truck.

 

Im not sure how much of it is tuning. Im running 18 degrees of timing with a 3.1 pulley with no detonation. Shifts are at 62-6300. My MAF in almost maxed out.

I think it is the first gear of the 80e hurting me. That and the extreme weight of the truck with the 22's and all.

 

ah, I missed that 80E in your sig... I have heard that that'll eat plenty low-end. and the 22s don't help much either huh?

 

Just sucks.. I was thinking that a 105+mph trap speed would net be a better time.

I think it may partly be the tuning. My intake temps had to be up around 180-190 degrees. The tuner is only running like 11 degrees of timing when the IAT's get past 150 degrees.

Is 8 degrees of timing a lot to be taken out when the temps rise? Outside temp was between 90-95.
