0-60 can be just as relevant as 60ft, 330, 1/8th, and 1/4. They just don't use that metric on time slips because drag strips use distance traveled vs rate of time instead of rate of time to reach X mph. Either way they are still measurements of acceleration.

First of all , I doubt the C8 Z51 will be a full second quicker to 60 mph and the 1/4 mile ET than a C7 auto trans Z51 . The base C8 and the Z51 C8 will be about 150 lbs heavier than the C7 in the same configuration. 11.50 quarter mile ET bone stock in average air and elevation is my conservative realistic guess. A Dodge reference regarding a Demon and the 1320 cars, Dodge says 9.65 on the Demon, no one has done it and 11.7 on the 1320 car, 12.0's are the norm on that car.
I know a tenth drop in 60 ft times shows up in the 1/4 mile et drop of that same tenth. Does a .5 diff to 60 MPH on similar powered and weight vehicles show up a plus or loss of .5 in the 1/4 mile et? I do not know...
