Take the spare tire offf an bracket. And put a roll pan to lighting it up and take them 12s out you might be under 4000 lbs within all that. You might be lucky with a high 12

I think you are going to have hard time hitting 12s.
My truck 6.0, 3200 stall(via nitrous), tuned, and a 100 shot did best of 13.4. I think it had 13.00 maybe but only went to the track once with that set up. I would think your set up should be similar.

Goodluck on the 12 but I think 13.2 is more realistic. Then if you do better great.

Good news is if you are mid 13s you are 100 shot from solid 12s!

If conditions are perfect you might squeeze a 12.xx in. I am thinking your in the 13.2-4 range

More cam wouldnt hurt with that 3600rpm converter. like a 224/230 would be nice. If it hooks and conditions are optimal a low 13s should be yours.

What diameter is that converter?

If you can get it out of the hole good, then 12's shouldn't be too hard imo...

beatdown the converter is the 9.5''

i do have a nnbs intake (intake only)just dont think i will have enough time or money to complete the swap with the intake those throtle bodys are like 400 plus bucks in which isnt bad i guess considering what ive spent on the truck alredy...
low 13s would be ok too but how much cooler would it be to say ive been 12s in it. heck i would celebrate and be happy with a 12.99 hahaha.
