the MPH is way off for a cammed 6.0. The 14.5 might be understandable if you got off the line poorly. Exhaust? Stall?

all but meaningless without a slip.
Did your 60 suck, what happened. I don't know the details of your truck, but my 2500 ran 14.2 with a CAI, exhaust, tune, slicks. Maybe another thing or two but I can't think of anything elses.
Post the slip and we can see where you went wrong.

Reaction time has no effect on the time it takes to cover the quarter mile. Your 60' is terrible! What stall are you running?

A converter would do wonders for your 60', and for that matter, your quarter mile time. You still have the stock tune with that cam?
