A 2.4 60ft is real slow for your mods...what was your mph in the 1/4mile?
Where you spinning? You should be able to do a 2.1 60ft on street tires at least...so that's .6 seconds off the line...then the stock shift points hurt you a couple of tenths and the weather wasn't ideal either so there's a couple more tenths. Get a real tune and some traction and you will be a second faster. Good Luck.

That was probably hurting you as well. Dont load your suspension. It costs you time to unload it and you dont get a very effective wieght transfer. Stall it to 1000 and let the converter flash and launch for you. I would say you should have ran a 14.4-6 that night.

I agree with Beau, especially if you were on street tires. If traction is not an issue or you or running slicks.....Well I still think that the 2800 stall is a bit light for that cam on a 4.8. I would think a 3000-3200 for that cam would be perfect.
I was running the same cam in my 5.3 crew cab, with a 2500 stall and turning 14.2's but with 2.1-2.2 60's, but a 2800-3000 would have shot me into the 13's solidly.
