When all of us older folks were 16 just about every car could do a smoky burnout and not many cheaper cars can do that nowadays. That 318 will feel like a rocket ship

The only way my 72 /6 Gold Duster would smoke em was if I got going 20 in reverse and slammed it into drive

Did that a few times with my first car too, a 55 chevy, w/265.
But I also dropped it into R while going 35 mph in drive too (pndlr). Locks up the rear wheels FAST!

I agree don't go too crazy on HP but most modern cars easily make 300+ gross hp so 250 ish hp seems like a decent start.
