Okay, so I have this real tricked out 1500 block that I built, right,
and it's running GREAT - I haven't romped on it yet because I havne't
hit 500 miles yet (I'm at 211 and running great!).  I open up the
throttle a little on the highway doing 50 and it shifts me comfortably
in my seat as it springs to life and growls under the acceleration.

It makes me giddy!

But I let off - don't wanna go over 55.  Yet.

The land of race car ya yas.

Where was I - oh yes, wheelspin!

I can't spin my rear wheels.  Well, except in mud.  But pavement -
nothing.  My clutch just kind of slips into gear.  Now don't get me
wrong, it slips into gear really quickly - but it won't peel out or
anything.  Does anyone else's stock 1500 gearbox allow them to lay down
rubber?

thanks -
MUMSY
