You need the total timing. That is usually somewhere around 3000 rpm. Just get a dial back timing light and increase rpm until you see the timing doesn't advance anymore. 12 degrees initial could easily end up being 36 degrees total with a 24 degree mechanical advance. That would put you into detonation territory bigtime with 10:1. Start out with a total at 30 and see how it runs!

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.
