I have no problem doing a rollin' burnout...on slick, wet roads or around corners.
Damm, i'd be happy with a good "chirp" !

I do it all the time on accident in the rain or on wet roads. lol

In dry weather, you would need bald *** tires, a nice stall and some 5.xx gears in the rear. No that would let you do a nice rolling burn out but your performance wouldnt be that good and the truck would get 5 MPG on the highway. lol

But hey, if your goal is just to do a rolling burnout, thats how you could do it.

Sorry guy, but what's the gain in a rolling burnout?????? You spin tires, your losing acceleration. I would rather want traction and g-force that plants me in the seat.
Who agrees??
Oh, and by the way,1. without aftermarket heads, cam, and stall converter, it's not going to even get close. Or
2. You need a hefty shot of N02. Or
3. Forced induction (supercharger or turbo).
Sorry, but you are asking for too much for minor bolt-on mods to do a rolling burnout. Your just going to have to caugh up a few grand to do what you want.
I'm pushing over 345HP and over 380FT of TQ at the flywheel, and I'm only able to bearly spin the tires at a rolling 20MPH. Will spin more on dry asphalt road than on a concrete road, but it still will not come close to spin that much to have them go up in smoke.
So there you are, you need over 400HP and over 400 ft of TQ to try and accomplish a rolling 20 burn out.
Another factor: I have a 3.73 rear gear locking diff. When mine spin, both spin. A normal free floating rear diff will probably put your right rear tire up in smoke with the same power I have, but what's the point of it?
I like traction and *** planting G forces!
Good Luck!

Jim

put your windshield washer squirters in the back wheel wells. It's incredibly dumb IMO, but hell if you really wanna do it go for it. And for the record, I can blow the tires right off at about 50mph or so.

What mods do you have to accomplish this blowing tires off at 50MPH or so???? What year and type of truck?
