I'm pretty sure if the traction is off, and you floor the car with a 5.7 it will burn out.
Does anyone know where the traction control is on 95 Eldorados ? I was looking for it but couldn't come across it.

On the allante you would disable traction control from the dic. It would last for 11 ignition cycles.
Not sure about the fleetwood and the later models, but should be able to be done.

YES !

Some GM cars I seen have a disable device over the mini spare tire.
Its required for safety to disable the traction control if your car is riding on the mini spare tire.

take a look.

Yes, but don't take my word for it, just do it. Of course in safe place like the on ramp to the x-way.

Push the button, put your foot on the brake, and then floor it.
Let us know how it works out.
