with your Timing cover allredy off, why dont you go ahead and do a compression test on it as is, then advance it and do another compression test and compare them?if you see a noticable increase, then you should see more TQ.



hmmmm..tha sounds like a good idea.

So...if I advance the cam and have higher cranking compression, it would make sense to leave it advanced. If not set it back to stright up.

Of course it could alos highlight other issue with the engine...and that would suck!!!

So no issue cranking the engine with the timing cover and damper off???
