Quote: Mark I don't see or remember seeing anything about this ...
You have a stock point distributor wit ha pertronics installed , correct ? Have you made any changes it to it to limit mechanical advance ? If the answer is no you want to keep your initial timing to no more than 5 degrees because the distributor has too much mechanical advance in it ....
This of course is after you figure out the cam timing issue .
Yeah, stock distributor with pertronix ignitor installed... I have not changed anything else within the distributor. Ain't no way it would idle at anything close to 5 degrees unless something drastic changes
