Thinking about runnin' the truck this weekend and wondering what you guys think it should run. Its an 03 ecsb chevy 5.3, all i have done is k&n drop in and tb-bypass and i'll probably ditch the spare tire and put about an 1/8 tank of gas in it. It's on an 1/8th mile track also.

 

mid 15's

edit: oops i thought it was 1/4 my bad

 

1/8 mile probably 10.3-10.5 just my guess but im not a chevy guy

the way you guys are geared your 60's arent that hot. thats the reason i opted for the mid-low 10.

 

Does your truck have stock wheels? If so, your truck should run a mid 10 in the 1/8 mile. Try to focus on getting the best traction...especially off the line. Other than that, just hit the gas and keep it straight!

 

i agree on the low 10s. for comparison, i have a 4wheel drive 1500HD that does a 10.5 1/8th. You should be doing better than that!

 

You can almost bank on mid 10's unless you hit the rev limiter or any other unforseeable mistake...

 

traction isnt going to be an issue for him im going to take a guess and say aroun 15.8 1/4 let us know

 

yea it has the blingin' 16" stockers on it with some kinda crappy all terrains that were on it when i bought it.

 

Well i took it out to the track tonight and made two passes. Not very good ones but oh well. First was a 10.6(had a bad reaction) and then a 10.4. I can't remember the first 60' but the second was like a 2.4 something. I guess you gotta start somewhere.

 

Nothing wrong with a 10.4. What was your MPH? Did you have good traction?
