John- What timing curve on these 10:1 engines? I assume the timing is coming all-in at 3000 RPM or higher?

To be honest, I do not remember. I haven't had a timing light hooked on either of these in 10 or 12 years. I just haven't had a reason to check the timing on them since they both run good, start good and have no signs of detonation. I don't race either of these cars. Both engines run a stock HEI ignition. It seems like I used one of the medium springs you get in those cheap weight/spring kits that used to be sold at the auto parts stores. I converted the '69 over to electronic ignition probably 15 years ago.
