Default 1500 5.3 Shortbox reg-cab 2wd auto.

How quick would this thing be, stock? I was looking at one. It's a 'Regency' conversion that has some sort of aftermaket catback.

1/4-mile time??????

mid 14s seems kinda fast for a truck with only exhaust... Like, I'm only think I could run mid 13s with traction @ sea level and I've got intake, exhaust, !cat, headers, cam, converter, and tune.... so I couldn't see mid 14s out of pretty much a stock truck w/ exhaust.
