This is a test tune on my 2012 5.3L. It should be close to what you were dealing with.
Thanks,

Just an update. Truck responded well to raising the minimum final timing, but still is lame from a dead stop. Not sure if I'm missing something or expecting it to be able to burn the tires down and it's simply not capable? Not giving up at this point, but haven't had something whip me like this in awhile.
The stall speed for the torque converter is built low. Tuning helps out. But just a tune your not going tune able to roast the tires. I always recommend a higher stall converter to be able to spin the tires like your asking. That way it will be right in the power curve when you go wot.
I doubt GM lowered the TC stall on purpose, the issue is its a GEN 4 4.8 engine that makes very little off idle torque. If you hada 5.3 the same 4.8 TC would stall a bit higher due to the increased torque of the 5.3.
