I wish my dream swap would be a Trubo 3.8 with the 8.5 rear end Grand national gears and GN transmisson in a cutlass supreme can you say sleeper?

yeah that would be a hell of a sleeper I have had the same thought. As far as spinning the tires, sometimes I just can't help myself hahaha and these old RWD g-body's are just perfect for some slippin and slidin gotta live a little. But yeah for me it is ridiculously easy to spin tires with the little 3.8 I know the perfect "sweet spot" on my brake and as soon as the tires break free i release the brake and ride

lol this conversation reminds me of a time I sent a Korean guy I talk to online sometimes a youtube vid of a guy cheating at doing burnouts (he jammed his parking brake on at the begining of the burnout) and since in his part of korea they still have a 290 horsepower limit on cars nobody does burnouts so he got confused and said 'why is there smoke coming out of this mans truck? Something is wrong his engine!?' because an asian guy like him can't even fathom risking the consequences of doing a burnout so it didn't even occur to him. Anyway it definitely shouldn't even be in your head to do a burnout w/ that setup until a brand new engine & transmission is sitting there ready for transplant. I'm sure the metric trans in your car doesn't appreciate it very much and might decide it doesn't want to leave 1st gear if you do it too much!
