Thanks Dick...
I run 92 octane 100% petroleum gasoline. It's available by my house and at the exit off the highway of the Dragway.
I want to emphasize that I have a PERTRONIX billet aluminum distributor and the Ignitor III Module, it comes with a variety of timing tuning capabilities and pieces parts to achieve that (springs, limiters, weights, etc). I am going to use my dial back timing light to check current status. If anything it's set to the "safe side" of the curve, as the 2 test drives I took included less than ideal engine loading tests, in other words a heavier throttle than the relatively low RPMs would call for, and I got ZERO pinging. I didn't lug the motor, but I did "test" it for susceptibility to pinging, and it didn't knock at all, so it's likely that I can dial in some additional advance.
I'll bring my timing light and distributor hold down clamp bolt wrench with me, along with my Ryobi air compressor, so I can play with tire pressure too.
I'll post results tomorrow night or Thursday.
Thanks!
