Maybe Summit uses a different standard for advertised duration than Lunati. I think Lunati uses a .006 standard.

This is why I compare @.050
Looking at these numbers they do look similar. Not exact but in the same ball park.

Progress has slowed to a crawl.
Timing cover on, fuel pump on, water pump on, installed ballencer last night,when bolting pulley to ballencer , noticed a buggered up thread in one of the 4 bolts that hold it on, retapping that tonight.
Got all 8 plugs cleaned and installed. Still got ps and alt to mount and oil change.
Single dad with 2 kids at home, and run my own business has to come first.
Should have it running and a new compression test by weekend.
As always thanks.
I'm betting the cam advanced (my bad) was the issue!
How far advanced was it?
