I know its not a 5.0 but since it tows my 5.0 i figured it counts, i have a video but im waiting for my buddy to send it to me
ran my truck today and got
1/8th 10.01
trap mph 71mph
60' 2.1
i know they arent the fastest time but for a dually crew cab long bed with a full tank and crap in the bed and crazy amounts of wheel spin im really happy, i think with a bit of launch tuning i could break down to low 9's
my truck wasnt really winding up until the 1/8th was just about over, i think i could break 13's in the 1/4 what do you guys think?

2.1 is not a bad 60' for street tires in a big truck, I think you'd be hard pressed to hit a low 9 by just improving launches. That is a hell of a time for a big truck, but I think you'll be hard pressed to hit 13's as-is. My car pulled a 9.284 @ 75.71 in the 1/8 which led to a 14.488 @ 94.90 in the 1/4, and from what I've seen the big trucks struggle with the MPH up top because of the hole they punch. With that said, I've seen quad-cab dually trucks run 12's all day but they've usually got a hit of N2O and Propane as well.
