Lead. They took the lead out the gas and they bolted on a cat, then reduced the compression to deter detonation. Then they added a sensor to detect engine killing detonation (or a noisy lifter) which retarded the timing, further reducing power. But, take a deep breath. It was worth it.

Who ever put this up need to check their eyes. Because those police car's are Pontiac not Dodge.

Why would they buy so many Dodge Monaco's?When the cars in the movie were mostly Pontiacs?

They never used Dodge Monacos in Smokey and the Bandit! The police car was a Pontiac LeMans

Yeah, they wrecked an assload of mopar cop cars in the first two movies, but none driven by Gleason...Once again, I have no earthly idea where this channel gets its inforrmation. By the time I had seen these movies around age ten I could tell the difference between a Dodge and a Pontiac at a glance.

First off Chrysler never made a 79 Monoco. Second off Smokey and the Bandit uses Pontiacs.Even the main police cars. How bad is your information as so wrong.
