Default Any Bets on my 1/8th mile time?!?!?!

Haha, well I figured I'd do a before and after run to see how much time I drop with my the stuff sitting in my room(3200 yank, 4.10's, 8.1L injectors, and pacesetters).

Right now I have a 99 5.3L silverado. Bone stock except:
224/224 comp cam
dynomax bullet
k&n
EFI Live Software.

Honestly, I'm really assuming something worse than stock with the stock stall, but if I can run a stock 1/8th mile time, I will honestly be happy.

I'll be running full street trim with a tonneau cover and bed rug but minus the back seat. So i'll be about 100-150 over stock.

I'm honestly just curious as to what my 60 is. So anybody want to guess my 60' time with my bigass cam and stock converter?

2.3? Honestly I'd probably take it. I'm expecting to run a 2.5 but I've never been to the track before so I wouldn't know how to judge it.

See if they will let you somehow do an 1/8th at a 30 roll. I'd say 2.13...

Well I'm shifting at 6400 right now, but I figure that will be pointless seeing as how I shift out of 1st at around 50 mph(damn 3.42's).

I'm thinking about lowering them to 6000 or so so that I will trap higher in second gear.

It sucks that it's only an 1/8th mile track.
