Ran into this last year on a friends circle track (Mopar) effort. Mid season an MSD box was installed due to ingition issues---Ran the whole season with sluggish performance that did not match the expectations---Checked the timing with 3 races to go and found out it was 8 yes EIGHT degrees retarded! Of course the last 3 races were rained out so we can only speculate --coulda/woulda/shoulda. You should observe a retarded timing condition. J.Rob




Help a guy out here. Are you saying with just a box change the timing will change? Educate me, how could the timing change if the distributor wasn't moved? The box does something to the timing even though the distributor isn't moved? How would you set the timing then?
