I couldn't get the 60' to get into the 13s but I had the same 96-97mph. My truck was too damned heavy to get better than a 2.01 60' without going to lower gears or a bigger stall

My truck is a piggy. LOL

Then what the hell was wrong with my truck or why is yours so damned fast for the MPH? Mustangs trap 98-100mph yet rarely get 13.6 ETs without a great 60'. LOL

I tried letting the truck shiftr earlier but it slowed down my ET. Weird.

I'm currently at 6300rpms with my shifts. I've got to contact Allen to send me a fresh tune for my new injectors, so I'll also be raising my shift points. What do you guys recommend for shift points on a 6.0L, 224 cam, and comp 918 springs? Thanks in advance.

I would shift around 6600-6700 with that cam.
