look they all are not slow i have seen some chevys that are pretty slow myself. i have a 4.6 rc and i raced a 5.3 at the track the other night and beat him. he had an intake exhaust and limited slip. i run 15.7 with just a limited slip and a home made intake so not all are as slow as yall say. i will be in the fourteens by thanksgiving with all motor. will have slip to prove.

I raced a 4.6 EC about a year ago at the track with my dads 02' 5.4 Supercrew (I didn't have my truck then so I was driving the crew ). I ran a 16.2 against the 4.6s 17.3. I talked to the guys and all he had on the truck was a Flowmaster.

BTW, I know I could have gotten a 15 secound run but I had a full tank of gas(dad had filled it up that morning ), spare tire, hitch, tailgate, running boards, and a passanger (~175lbs) that night. Mods on the Supercrew were a Superchips programer, dual borla exhaust, and a drop in K&N filter. (Dual borlas now on my truck ) Best run was a 16.26@85. Tought I would share.
