You won't have a problem doing it with 3.42s.
Also probably not a good idea to do a burnout in reverse. ;)Matt

I can light my camaro up with the 3.42s. I could peg leg it with my 3.08s before I did the rear swap. Def. not a problem

My firebird lights em up every single time with the 3.42s....I can even chirp 2nd and mines auto...
I do have a shift kit and a built tranny though.
But I have ws6 rims with 275/40/17s im chirping with 2nd, so it's nice.
When I had my stall converter I could smoke em off the line hardcore and it was easier to chirp too.

yep. it was not the smoke show it is now but it was more than enough noise and smoke to get me in trouble if officer friendly was around.
