That's the same with my dad. When we built the 396 in the Chevelle back when I was in high school the first thing after breaking in the cam he took it up the street and left a 300ft burnout. That engine had well over 200,000 miles on it when I pulled it out and I used to race it every Friday, Saturday and Sunday for about 3 years.
