Yeah beginning of the week we backed it off just a C hair. Smokes less now too, which has me puzzled because all the literature says advanced timing will smoke less.
Could very well be wrong on this but my theory is this. The 4 LB of boost it gained (38 now 42) from backing the timing off a bit allows more air in the combustion chamber to facilitate a more complete burn. Even with the fire starting later a bit closer to TDC. Makes sense to me.

It deff felt more snappy with it advanced but it would lose steam quicker on a pull if you didn't keep it above 1650-1700. Now it holds on down to 1450-1475. I don't lug below that anyway. No sense it stressing it like that. Pretty much run it the same as a big cam

I swear man California isn’t part of the United States anymore, on every product #### near in existence there’s a nice little label/warning just for them and then there’s all the state laws that goes against the federal; I thought we fought a war over secession, apparently it’s totally cool now hahaha650cat425, singlescrewshaker, D.Tibbitt and 4 others Thank this.
