HOLY SH!T

I followed these steps to the letter and I cannot believe what a difference that made.

I would not have believed ANYONE, if I had not just done so for myself. I never knew how easy that was... I am completely shocked.

Thank you a million times over.

timing is @ 36 degrees total
A/F mixture is ideal, vacuum is set, throttle response is SICK... I was able to get it right back where it was during the dyno pull when it made the most power.

I fully agree with Yucks suggestion other then I would run the timing up until it talks and then dropit 1-2 degree's. I have found that the majority of BB engines can take up top 40 degree's or more with a big cam just my dime

lol this was told to me many years ago... and yes walk up the timing up to 38-40 if it will take it.

timing is @ 36 degrees total
