I ran consistent 15.7 in my 02 ECSB 5.3L with 3.73's, Corsa and K&N FIPK and those DTW guys were running 15.3's all day. The SRT10 and one other truck with a 100 shot of nitrous were in the high 13's or low 14's, IIRC. I always got them off the line and they always past me halfway through the run.

Yes, they were RCSB's. What do you mean "weight my truck"? Do you mean putting sandbags over the axle or something? My truck weighs in around 5300lbs with a full tank which should make it around 5500lbs race weight that night.
EDIT- FWIW, I dyno'd my truck on a Mustang Dyno last year with about 90,000 miles on it and it came in at around 250hp/270-280tq. This was in Maryland and only a month or so after California.

so there's a few rcsb 2wd hemi's doing 14.8's and 14.9's? so basically stock vs. stock, we're looking at trucks that exactly the same?
i know when you get in the 4x4 and ex cab trucks and such, the hemi seems to be the horse, via torque and displacement.
can you get one of your boys from dtw or something to post up with a confirmed " under 15 second " stock pass? Joshluther ran a 14.9 bone stock, with 18" wheels on.
so i'm not talkign slicks or DR's, i want street tires, stock truck.

I ran a 15.6, but that was with 4 12's, 20's at 45psi in each tire, full tank of gas, spare and tailgate on, and no weight reduction. I probably weighed close to 5400# that night. Keep in mind, this was my first time to ever go to a track, so I didn't know how to stage or anything.
also my trucks a z71 4x4 so its not that light dunno what everone else has...?
oh and i didnt have my ls1fans, 02 pcm, shift kit or exhaust..well i had flowmaster 40 series deltaflow on there, now i have a magnaflow with a dynamax intermediate pipe (pic on cardomain page)
