That's easy enough to remedy. Your local landfill, scrap metal yard, or rock quarry will have scales. You already know you 0-60 so enter in some different hp numbers until your 0-60 time comes up. Should be reasonably close. I punched in a stock 5.4 @300hp and a weight of 5600lbs (what mine weighs fully loaded, full of fuel and me in it). It comes up with a low 8 which is just about right. My best time stock was 8.3.

Cool. I'm in a super cab with the 4.6. Only mods I got are 33 at tires, 3inch front level, dual exhaust (si:do) gryphon programmer on canned lvl2 and that's pretty much it . I can get 0-60 fast enough is all I know lol. I am still considering lower for better handling but meh it's a truck may ride the way it is for awhile. Sorry for the hijack!

Here's a link to a calculator that may help you determine if your truck is where it should be or off a bit http://www.measurespeed.com/zero-to-...calculator.php
Not to doubt you but i weighed in at 4900 lbs before. No tailgate and low on gas. Wonder where the difference comes from.

Don't know. Mines an extended cab 07. Weighed it at the scrap yard and the rock quarry here in my town and they were within 5lbs of each other. 5580lbs and 5585lbs. I wish I could get down to 4900. Fatherford is close to that having a roll pan in place of his rear bumper and a single cab. 4900 is Lightning territory IIRC.

When I drag race I get down to around 5300lbs with light weight wheels, less fuel, remove the sub and box, and a few other changes.

It looks like mine is about right on time. Stock is a 11.83 on the calculator and I run a 11.1 with a chip and all

I have a screw with a 4.6 maybe the 4.6 is a little lighter but its the same block. Im lost on how its so light. Weighed it on a CAT scale so I know its right.

I know this is off topic but weight plays into 0 to 60 times haha.

That's interesting. Curb weight listing for a 4.6 screw 2wd is 5176lb and 4wd is 5476. Wild! I wish I could drop more weight. Every 100lbs is a tenth of a second in the 1/4 mile. Hell running my truck via remote control would drop me to 12.5 in the 1/4 lol.
