how about you quit worrying about "rolling coal" and worry about using the truck for what it was made for...?

No smoke is better. means your making power and not just smoke. Also make sure the spark plugs are not fouled... that could cause it to not "roal coal"

Anything done to the tranny? A stock non lock up transmission sucks up a whole lot of power. Which brings us to the question of, do you want power or smoke?
