BS, he is not running 11s with just a cam and a 6.0
that cam is HUGE for a 5.3. I wouldn't even bother putting that cam in the 5.3 it's going to be a bitch to tune. I had a 224/224 110 in my 5.3 when I had a reg cab silvy and it was a bitch to tune.
and 11s on motor is fully possible with full bolt ons, a big cam, a big stall, a badass tune and lots and lots of traction
11s aren't as easy as just dropping in a 6.0, throwing in a cam and calling it a day.
I would go a MINIMUM of 3400 on the stall if your sticking with a cam that big

BTW some of you guys don't know much about GM trucks with LS based motors do you? You know that the record for NA 5.3 reg cab is 12.4x? Heads/cam/intake/full bolt ons/gears/stall and a badass tune obviously. As far as I know there wasn't much weight reduction either.
12s are easily capable in these trucks and with a 6.0 swap 11s aren't far out of reach either in a reg cab but traction is everyones biggest fight. They can put 400 to the wheels easily with a cam and full bolt ons.

nice truck! post the cam vid asap!
Unless some of those bolt-ons include putting on all the good ls1 stuff such as a fast intake and throttle body I don't see a full bolt-on cam truck doing any better then 13's especially with a 5.3L. Ur talking maybe 230ish to the ground stock, full bolt-ons and a cam will net ya what a full bolt-on ls1 vette or camaro has. And they don't do 11's full bolt-ons unless they have some weight reduction and a BIG stall.
5.3s put 230 to the ground stock
The new 5.3s which I have put 255 to the ground STOCK
wth!!!!
Gotta agree. I'd rather have a cobra. But thats my opinion.
But hey, If thats what you want, then glad to see you got it.
Have fun with it!
(BTW, nice lookin truck.. I just like Cobras better though)

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
Good luck with the truck and dont sweat the morons who love to scream COBRA.
you need to go to HRP one day...there are several 5.3's NA running 12s (not 12.9999 either)
yes, there are 11 second NA 6L's too. what is a BIG stall BTW?
FWIW my DD is a 6L RCSB that has bolt ons and a 100 shot.
go troll around on performancetrucks.net and maybe you'll learn about something besides mustangs
do you need proof? Timeslips? Videos? Name it and I can pull it up. There are tons of NA 5.3 reg cabs running mid to high 12s right now. It's not as difficult as you think. Shit I know of a few that are putting almost 400 to the wheels!
actually my truck (6.0L RCSB) and my buddies pullied 99 lightning run almost identical 1/4 ETs (that's w/o nitrous too). his truck gets 10mpg and mine gets 16mpg.
we both have 4.10s and i have a 3200 stall converter
so yes they are better
LOL I don't own a mustang. And I've been to HRP plenty. But I still never see CAM ONLY chevy trucks running 11's bro. Seen stroker motor, sprayed, and/or boosted motors did it plenty of times. So I've been around the block. Almost bought an 03 regular cab a few years back that had a built lq9 with a 150shot on it. Was an awesome truck, ran bottom 11's very consistently, and hooked up well on the street on top of that.
