Default tm question

hey with the tm reduced romved etc i should be able to roast em without the old powerbrake am i correct. you think a truck with a 373 and 270 hp v8 would spin. i thought tm was to keep you from killing yourself in slick conditions rather than for the drivetrain? still debating weither to scrap that **** all together or just leave tad bit.

no tqm is there to protect the weak as tranny and the drivetrain. it will pull timing to keep it from breaking. what size tires. posi or peg leg. traction control is what tries to keep you from killing yourself in slick conditions. i would not remove all of it if the tranny isnt beefed up. yay roasting the tires is nice. but traction is better.

Put it this way when I got my 93 tune from Allen with 60% TM removed I could roast them on blacktop anytime but on regular roads sometime. With all the Tn removed I can roast my tires whenever I want! I have a 03 4.8 ecsb with 3:42 peg leg. And witht he shift kit+servo I can bark second! But then again peg leg burnouts are gay in my opinion! Cant wait unitll I get posi!!!!
