WELL IM NOT TRYING TO START A WAR EITHER. THEY WERE STOCK AND I HAD THE K&N FIPK AND A HPPiii AT THE TIME. AGAINST ONE, WE WENT FROM A 30 ROLL AND I PUT ABOUT 5 LENGTHS ON HIM AND THEN WE WENT FROM A DIG AND I PUT 7 ON HIM HE MIGHT HAVE SPUN A LITTLE OFF THE LINE BUT SO DID I. ANYWAY I STOPPED AND TALKED TO 2 OF THEM I RAN AND THEY SAID THEY RAN 16.4 AND 16.3.

I'm notorious for being a jerk sometimes so I appologize for twerking you. Sometimes I phrase things in a bad way on the internet.

a few people here said what i would say a 15.7-16.2 pass...but i have a good friend that raced a 00'single cab 4.8 will exhaust and all freebie mods done and his best pass in 40degree weather and only 30% humidity at no promlem raceway was 15.79 i dont see a an almost identical truck going any better than a 15.9 in this weather its spring now and with weather this warm you cant expect to run too well in cooler weather next winter you can maybe expect some 15.7 passes and as for whoever said they beat single cab 4.8 trucks in a z71 with a 5.3 i gotta throw up the BS flag im sorry but i have seen a 92 single cab v6 only lose by half a truck length to a 5.3 z71 sorry buddy but your z is not that fast unless you are parish8

I don't see why it is so hard to believe.

My truck (RCSB 2wd, 4.8L, 3.73s) bone stock at a 4460lb raceweight and 87 octane, went 15.5@89.9mph on a 2.3 60' on my 4th run.

My other 2 timeslips were:

2nd run
60': 2.340
ET: 15.566
MPH: 88.755

3rd run
60': 2.330
ET: 15.538
MPH: 88.169

The DA was about 500ft if I remember correctly. The only diff. was me manually shifting it at as close to 6k as I could.

Wheel spin was completely rediculous! My first run was an 18sec with a 3.6 60'!! I couldn't leave the line hard at all. I have no doubt that I could have pulled at least a 2.1 60' if I could find traction with these 20s. I'm putting the Caltracs on and doing a quick tune before I take it out one more time and gonna try for a 14 with the stock motor, exhaust, and trans.

with that terrible 3.42 gear in that torquless 4.8 that's where alot of the difference is going to be. another reason i guess the time to be high is difference in drivers.
