Wait........I don't want to get into an arguement with you guys. I'm gonna loose until I get some hard numbers. With what I know now, I'll make up some lost time at the track this go around.

James my comment was meant say that it's silly to spend that much money on a 5.3L just for a dyno number. I have every intention of keeping my 5.3L in my truck. I've seen yours pre-cam, Blue Cajun, ap2002, silver-mod-o, txsilverado(pre ls1), and tons of others are my truck's "role model" so to speak and they all run/ran 5.3Ls and had amazing times.

Oh just for numbers.........I see. Well I'm after ET. But too get the ET you have too have the HP and TQ to do so. I'm shooting for a 12.5 next time @ the track. My question for you guys is if I run a 12.5, should I be putting down lets say 385hp or more to the ground??? Sorry for hijacking this thread but you wanted to see what I takes to get 400hp to the ground. Also to, I hit 385hp to the ground while going through a t-case.........I should be seeing 21% drivetrain loss. So a 2WD would see a 19%????? I don't know..........

I'll post up some new ET's and dyno numbers later this year.

Good luck with 400HP to the ground!!!!

See that's partially my point. BlueCajun only dynoed at 340/340 when he ran the 12.5, and TXSilverado broke into the 13's with an extended cab and he dynoed at only 277 rwhp. In theory if BlueCajun was putting down 400rwhp then he should be in the 11's n/a

Well I think it has to do with mother nature depending on where you are at. Like am in oklahoma and I put down 455 on the spray and went high 11s, on motor I went mid 13s and I put down 350hp na. Where you are located matters as far as air density goes less humidity means you are going to put down good numbers and good ets so you can't really go off of some of this guys. Good air helps this trucks alot! that well tell you why txsilverado went 13a on 277 in a extcab which is still hard to take in.
