Try down around 18 for the Mickey's..30 degree timing is low...my 76 low compression 455 I'm at 38..Next time at the track put the timing up 2 degrees at a time...or crank it up at home...you will feel a huge difference over 30...Just double check it doesn't advance at higher rpms.You have a stock convertor too?Pretty good times I think!

right now I'm between cars, I used to race a black 69 GTO, years ago I had a 10 second 64 GTO. Hopefully around the beginning of the year I'll be back out with a 71TA. I still go out there with friends, what color 74.
