I did an 8.80 @ 80 mph and a 13.80 @ 98 mph. Does this sound right? Or is my truck falling off at the end. This was on 22 in rims with a 2.02 60ft on 285/40/22 Toyo Proxies. The truck has a 3000 stall, LS1 hot cam and 4.10 gears. Then the normal cia, exhaust, headders, Nelson tune. It wen 80s exactly. 80 mph exactly in the 1/8. Whas up with all the 8s?

Rule of thumb on heavy vehicles is multiply 1/8th ET by 1.57 for 1/4 ET.

Cars is usually 1.56 and motorcycles or turbo / supercharge / nitrous 1.55

You can google for a table that converts 1/8 et.s and MPH to 1/4 mile et.s and MPH. I have ran my 03 SS Silverado on both 1/8 th mile and a 1/4 mile track and found the table to be fairly accurate.
