That is what I thought too and why I ask. My car is a stock block also for now. I run 38° base timing and am now at 24° at 14psi. That is still low on mine and I'm on pump gas. I was conservative with mine for a long time. Turned the boost and timing up some and it was fine. Next time out at the track I'm gonna bump mine up to 27° on the 14psi. It's already in the box.
And the reason that I run 38° of timing initial is because it's a street car and runs good on 38°.
Not a pissing match. Was just curious. I kind of took the replies as being crappy too with the "moon tune" comment and the " anybody that runs more timing is a parts man's friend" stuff.
