Best Burnout Process with Full Auto 727

[Cal Tonsley]

I’m interested to hear from everyone what is considered the safest burnout procedure when running a full auto (non reverse manual valve body) 727? The car will probably only ever see street miles but I’d just like to hear some opinions in terms of best preserving the trans and occupants. I’m well aware of best practice when using a RMVB and happy to be advised to refrain from performing burnouts if thought necessary.

Start your burnout and shift gear. People have blown trannys by leaving in 1st. Cope has a video about it.

I ALWAYS do my burn outs starting in 2nd gear with a manual valve body. Once the tires begin to smoke, shift to high gears and release the brakes. If you are running a stock valve body, it gets a "little" iffy. You might want to invest in a transmission shield or blanket, One or the other might save your right foot if it explodes.
