What spark plugs are you running, brand and part #? I had a low compression(8.5 to 1 actaul) I/O drive boat motor that would ping using a Champion J12Y spark plug set but wouldn't ping using the next lower heat range, J11Y I would try the next colder heat range spark plugs The last iron headed 440 motor I tuned until it ping didn't like any total timing above 36 degrees on Oreogon non ethanol 91 octane pump swill I would put the total timing at 34 degrees revved up and readjust the intial to get between 14 and 18 BTDC I like and use really weak advance springs in my distributors so the total timing is all in by 2000 RPM My converters are a lot looser than that at WOT, they will flash to 4400 RPM or higher There very similar driving on the street to a stock Mopar 11 inch converter at light part throttle pressures below 3000 RPM also


I am using NGK xr5s and have been for years. This problem was non existent with the auto and loose vert. With the manual the engine is getting load now at 2-3000rpm and that's where the problem start raring its ugly head, that and pure pump swill. If I could just run 5 gallons of 110 per tank and not kill my o2 sensor, this thread wouldn't exist. When the weather let's up I'm gonna try to keep my initial as is,set total to 34-35 and swap out one spring for the next heavier. I have the black bushing left to narrow the advance down to I think 18 degrees total mechanical to try.

I'm not sure but I thought were recommended for 10.1 iron head big block.

looking a t last dyno, 13.5 cruise 12.6 to 12.9 on throttle.160 t stat not good for street motor 180-195 is perfect.

Trying to keep this Big Block Dart at 160 degrees for 5 laps around a road course just isnt gonna happen. So ive accepted the fact that 180-190 is where its gonna be.

I'd go with the heaviest springs you can put in there total timing all in by 4200 you won't lose throttle response can you have the program fatting it up in those areas. Too bad you don’t have the full fast system and have it control the timing.

Try putting a NGK plug number ending in -6,-7 and a -8 I blew out a Fel Pro PT head gasket, melted the 440 block and a M.W. iron head betwween the cylinders on #4 and #6 by swappping from a NGK-7 plug to a -6 at the track

What? Really? Damn so these are a hot plug then? SO a 5670-6 would be next colder then? Yeah im open to reduce the chances of head gasket failure lol!

Put a larger radiator in it... there is no reason you
cant keep it cool with a larger radiator and shroud
EDIT
I dont know the NGk numbers but if it is a hot one
you most likely will take care of all your problems
with a cooler plug... and maybe a touch more fuel

NGK numbers are backwards. The lower the number the hotter. 5 being the lowest and therefore the hottest...

Mr. P it has an excellent radiator already. I really appreciate you guys all jumping in here and helping out. Thanks a bunch! I just ordered a set of R5670-6 NGK's and when it warms back up im gonna get this thing dialed for pump piss and hope for the best.

Update. Changed plugs to the above NGK's and removed Silver bushing for the Black bushing. Replaced one light silver spring with one light blue. Set total timing to 35 and have about 17 intial. Huge difference! I get no ping in 2nd gear matting it at any RPM and just a tad if im lugging it in 3rd and tip in hard in the 1500 rpm range. I feel a bit of relief now that I dont feel like im ruining my engine whenever I drive it.

Buy some NGK -7 I ran them on the street with pump swill a lot leaner AFR than your using But it is a automatic with a loose converter and aluminum heads now

I may just do that Cab. Im betting that when it warms up and air density gets worse it may be fine?

The last 906 iron headed pump gas motor I had in my Duster would ping in the summer heat with high humidity, not so when it was cooler and dryer

In theory that makes sense, but in practice it's usually backwards from that. The temperature is the biggest contributor to detonation, if you get the intake air temp down you can run more timing.

I'm running 9.7:1 with a TQ50 Erson cam, flat top KB pistons that are out .009" (oops), ported 452 heads, headers and a torker II intake. All in a 5000lb 4x4. Running a stock distributor with the slots shortened up and the heavy spring removed and, if I remember correctly, 38 degrees total timing. So far I have had zero problems with detonation. Running NGK V-power 7 plugs. I am at 5000 feet in elevation though. I took it to Vegas but had fuel delivery problems so I wasn't exactly hammering on it. It is a 4spd so the load is similar. I do, on occasion, have issues with the plugs fouling slightly at extended low RPM, but they clear up quickly. And by low RPM I mean 600 RPM lugging because I'm too lazy to downshift. Don't know if any of that helps =). I have a set of Stage VI heads I'm porting that will end up on there eventually. Tight quench with a .045" gasket and .009" out should make for a detonation resistant setup in spite of the higher compression. Guess I'll find out.
