You guys are too funny, I see smoke every time I drive my truck, It just come from under the hood....

HAHAHAHA yall are HALARIUS

you never know, lotsa funny things could've happened... in spinning to 4K, the crank could have stretched, causing it to grow from its normal 3.48" to 3.75 or more... and with the added stroke, the pistons had to go somewhere, so the bore enlarged to 4"... that would transform that weak little 305 to a 383 in no time. yeah, sure, and my trucks are all rust free too.

HAHAH eric is busted! I did a burn out in a parking lot once. Completly side ways while going strait foward threw 1st and 2nd for at least 150ft before the security guard brought the cops in. Of course it had just rained

I could burn my tire (no posi) all day long but try to explain to the wife (or whoever holds the checkbook) that you need a new tire once a month?

My truck will do it on dry roads.

Better if its cement.

Hey Tom do you have a way of putting video online, from a video camera? I have some cool parking lot videos of a Firebird.
