Default anyone with a 5.0 and a 5 speed...

i got an 88 5.0 w a 5 speed...

supposedly it has a cam in it, and i was wondering something.

in 1st gear when i punch it at about 2500 rpms, the tires spin on dry pavement. (both tires spin, and they are 35x12.5 r15s)

will u guys trucks spin them in first gear like that... with out dumpin the clutch, just punching it?

i dunno if its cause of the cam and intake??
