thats because k-mart is behind the times, you need to get with the program and use a real performance product like redners or walmart. all those "other" guys that claim to have a "real performance" product are just cheap knock-offs. you get what you pay for........

If you just ran the truck in park you won't get smoke anyway. I really did forget to take a plastic bag off my truck once when I washed the engine campartment and ran into town that way. Never noticed a thing until I came back a popped the hood again. I am not even sure if it would really smoke driving. Might and might not.

Fuel is dependant on the load of the engine. in park or neutral there is very little load.

I did the same thing as you Tim years ago on the mud racer. I had a brand new K&N on it. As always I had to wash the engine after a race. Forgot to take the bag off.......The blower sucked the whole assembly down to about 1 inch tall in about 3 seconds. Kinda like those food savers. That was the point where I ran the intake inside the cab. LOL
