And I've personally seen the bathtub chambers not require a bunch of timing lead on some engines being dyno'd despite what's posted on the internet. We've had 2 in fact that made best power at just 34 degrees. I don't call that much at all and I've had heart shaped chamber engines that needed more than that.

That's why we dyno
