I'm nearly a mile high. The lack of oxygen requires a couple more degrees of ignition advance. I also run on 91, which is probably more octane than the engine really needs at 10.3:1 compression.

At sea level, I would bet I make peak power with more like 32-33 degrees of total timing.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
