Run your truck on the 1/4 mile sometime.
My 4.6 3 valve turned a 15.4 @ 90 mph in the 1/4.

9.87 1/8th puts him in the 15.4s for the 1/4, if this is correct:

Race Calculator

Or multiply the 1/8th time by 1.555

How to get 1/4 mile times from 1/8 mile.

That also puts it at about 15.4.

I can't find the info at the NHRA site, must be in the rulebook which is probably the size of a NYC phone book by now....

Best advice was to just run the 1/4 I think....

Wonder how the Eco & 5.0L would compare with those numbers; or for that matter, the 6.2L in the SCREW?

I suppose they're out there somewhere, but I haven't seen any back to back performance runs with similar trucks and rear-end ratios.

Agree, as I question the 1.555 calculation factor...
that would mean my HEAVY Ex would run a 13.8 1/4 8.9 * 1.555 ?!?

There should be a basic power to weight calculator that will give you a closer estimate than that...
