Honestly I think since I've been wanting a RCSB I really wasn't too into it
But I'll see what I end up doing to the RCSB. Keeping it just not going to do performance mods anymore.

I've only had mine for a little over a month and right around 1,000 miles but I'd be surprised if it ran in the 14s at all in the 1/4. My best friend just got a 6.2/A8 4x4 crew cab also but he says he thinks it has a 13 second pass bone stock. I guess we'll see soon

Now going to start looking for a RCSB 5.3 for me and for a little fun.
Man that's not good to hear... espically since I've started modding mine.

Did the replace it under warrenty? I doubt they did.. I'm just curious.

There's been a hand full of 8spd guys trucks and Camaro guys having issues with the factory converter from what I was told. They simply put in a new converter and didn't say it was tuned. My tuner did a little more adjusting and feels a lot better on the low end. I simply lost interest in it.

Yup. I had to replace my convertor at 6k miles.... Was that your trucks problem?

Yeah me too. There are time slips posted on here with a 13.7 stock time.
My truck defiantly feels like a 14 second truck, even on the 33s. Its stock right now... in the process of all the mods listed below.

Man I hope not , I daily a 2014 5.3 double cab 4x4, it doesnt feel much quicker than that. I'm probably being a little dramatic though because even my Silverado SS ran 14.86 way back in 2005 in stock trim a few weeks after I bought it. This one "should" be quicker. I've read about a handful of them running in the 13s.

What was it acting like before the converter being replaced? What do you mean by "flared 1st gear"?
