Your times seem like they should be much faster with the power your showing to the wheels at 400+. What did your 60' look like, elevation and weather? That kind of power to the ground with a good 60' is capable of running low 12's at sea level.

I was hoping for a 13.5 at least but that night even with the slicks on best run was 13.92. 60 ft was 2.00. It launched pretty hard but kind of fell flat at the end of the track.The track is at about 2710ft. elevation. And yes it still is the stock trans with the vette servos.

Hey nonnieselman thanks alot, ever since you mentioned the stock tranny it started slipping. It was fine before this last trip to the track but i guess it about that time 94k miles. I guess i'll be saving for one of those FLT level 5 trans soon.

even with that 60 foot.. a magnacharged 5.3 should be running in the 12's and than low 12's with the right weather/traction...

do you have a diff. gear set? or is that tune off... something doesnt seem right.

Hell mine run's mid 13's with just a motor swap, and in alot worse air. Who tuned it? Might want to give them a call and ask them WTF. That truck should easily be in the 12's.
