Taking our W9 engine to the dyne next week. We were running 35* total with lightest/silver advance springs for easy starting in the staging lanes. Any advantage to locking out the distributor advance?
Not that I know of or like
I try to recure my standard electronics distributors so the motor has between 14 BTDC to 18 degrees BTDC at idle, under 1500 RPM and all in by 2000 to 2500 at 34 BTDC to 36 BTDC on BB and 426 Hemi motors on gasoline. I like and use the same idle timing for small block and usually find that they like between 30 and 32 degree BTDC at or above 2500 RPM
