Now fix the idle tune up because 10* is not a good setting, good for a stock 318, yes... anything else, no!

I ran 19 initial on both of my DD 318's, an 85 in a Ramcharger and an 83 from a cordoba.

This almost always results in the intake valves running into the pistons...... Unless the valve pockets are really deep and/or the cam is really small.


Perfect example

Still waiting on my stroker kit , but the machine shop said they would degree the cam while I was there , so I could watch and learn
