It makes sense to me really. The 5.3L trucks were running 12.4-12.5 with truck intakes and stock heads and mild stall's. He's running a 6.0L with more compression, better heads, much bigger cam, Fast 90/90, 4000 stall, etc. It's a bit faster than would be expected, but still not out of the range of possible.

I am not bustin your *****, but am I missing something? What is ALL done to your motor? What do you consider a stock bottom end? I mean, I know LOTS of people with LQ4 motors, cams, heads, intakes, and are NO where near 12.0 let alone a 11.6. Hell most are pushing 8 lbs of boost as well and just cracking 12 seconds. Come on, you can tell us, we are all friends here...you have a built motor with a stock windage tray right?

Well, anytime you run a number like that you'll be questioned. You did it in -DA and 30º weather too which almost nobody gets to run in. Your same truck in the average 60º weather and a DA of around 1200 or so like many other tracks would be in the 11.8's or so. They are also comparing your times to other trucks that are more streetable. With your cam and converter your truck is probably good for cruising, but not much of a daily driver type. I'm curious, who built your trans?

I don't take it as rude...I am the one asking so its quiet okay to ask why I am asking. It's like I am calling you out fwiw, I can't avoid that, but I don't mean to. Just cause people ask "how the ****" doesn't make them haters. If you know you are doing what you are doing with a stock motor then you'll sleep just fine, I would. I missed the thread that Zippy linked, haven't checked it out yet.
I understand the other truck times from the valley, I get the whole large stall speeds, seems a lot of people are doing that these days. I am astonished for the reason I stated above, I know lots that have what you have listed and are no where near your times. That's what causes people to question, it happens...just imagine how Columbus felt when he said the world wasn't flat. Maybe the Valley trucks have discovered something. Yeah sure there are differences, tuning...converter, and so on, it's just amazing to me.
Just think of my questions as discussion...you make it known in your sig you have a stock motor besides heads and cam only, so to me, unless it weighs 3800 lbs, 11.5 seems a far stretch for 10:1 or 9.5:1 compression 6 liter. You are spinning and taking it easy out of the hole as well, jesus, you have more room for a faster time. INSANE I say, just INSANE. I need to throw away my blower, cam, heads, and nitrous and get your head, cam, intake specs.
Seriously, take pride in your times, I would, when you are all out there by yourself or in a group that comes from one specific location then you are get questioned, such is life.
