Default 0 - 60 Times and the Mods That Got You There

Just curious what different guys are running for 0-60 times and what mods it took you to get those times. Seems like a good way to see what mods make real world performance gains. Also include details about your truck like 2wd or 4wd, RC or QC, stuff like that.

That is a good time. Impressed that you can get traction with the stall, gears and a 2wd. Thumbs up to good driving right there.

I believe it. I only launch in 4wd ever since cam install. Then converter just made it even harder to get traction in 2wd.

I need to have a real clean surface to get any grip from a dead stop so I can't imagine ever sticking to the road with a 2800 stall converter and regular street tires. 6secs is impressive tho. She sure hauls *** once it hooks up.

I have been able to get a little better traction since I added a little extra weight to the rear by adding a hard bed cover. Every little bit of traction helps.
