Only OBD II GM Vehicles. However, have them click on the below link to find some useful tuning info on their trucks.

Should be touching 6's. Change out the TCI converter and install a Yank 3600, and a set of aftermarket 5.3 heads, should run mid 6's. remove front sway bar, change out rear suspension, and add subframe connectors, put fats and skinnies on, should be in 6's all day.

If only running the 1/8th, you could use 4.10s and be even quicker in the 1/8th.

Hope this helps.
What's wrong with TCI converters?

Get your car running the best it can with your current setup before changing a bunch of things, unless something is wrong or needs fixed first. Get to the track and keep a little note book of everything and what the results were. Post a timeslip here for us to see.
