Stock D-max, how fast & how much power?

[gstanfield]

:bigsmile: OK, I know this is going to be a silly, vague question but try to follow my thoughts if you will :) My truck is slow, I will not argue that. Today I got to race a mostly stock D-max/Allison in a short bed ext cab chevy. I think it was an 05 model if I remember right. The only mods to the D-max was a 4" exhaust system (have no idea what brand)

Off the line he got a little jump, I was back even with him by 10mph and stayed dead even up to 80mph, then from 80-90 he started to pull away from me a little, but not much. I let off at 90 as we were in a 75mph zone and figured my wife would not be impressed with me getting a ticket :)

So, my truck is heavier by a decent amount (long bed, ext cab 4wd dodge) and I was kinda wondering just what a stock D-max can do so I kinda know where I'm sitting right now.

Anyone care to guess at what my 1/4 mile times would be or HP numbers based off such poor, limited, non-scientific, almost worthless data :D

Thanks for any ideas here, sorry for such a dumb question.

If your correct on the model year then it would have been an LLY version of the engine. That model makes about 250 RwHp stock.

a guy i know has a 05 LLY 2500HD E/C S/B and the stock dyno #'s are 270rwhp with 480rwtqru....

If it was stock like you say, that truck would probably run mid-low 16s in the 1/4.

250ish HP, probably high 16's depending on launch in the quarter mile. With your trucks weight you probably have a little more power to the ground!

270 RWHP and about 490 RWT. Also, I'd say high 15s, low 16s in the quarter.

Cool, thanks guys :) I found out today that he has exhaust and intake, but no programming yet. I figured my truck for a 18 second ride, so finding out that I should be running high 15's to low 16's makes me feel good about it:rockwoot:
