Really 20 at idle?
What is the timing curve, initial, full, and all in by?
I'm not running EFI timing yet, using an MSD distributor.
Is it hard to start with 20 degrees initial or do they start at a lower timing then switch to 20? Interesting.


I guess this is the age-old question port or full vacuum, and I admittedly have not set up my car for full vacuum timing nor have I driven it that way. I went port since I wanted the timing to pick up right off idle rather than drop, then pick up. My idea being this is easier to tune and offers a smoother timing curve and maybe a little more timing at part throttle cruising where the mixture is lean and needs the extra time to burn.
