What should I be looking at in terms of timing for this car. Like I said it's nothing trick just stock with a cam. What's a good starting point?

you'll probably want it to have 30- 36 degrees of total timing at highway rpms. be sure the vac advance and the mechanical weights in the distributor are functioning properly.


you say the car is all stock with a cam. if this includes the carb i still think you'll need more jetting.
