So how much timing are you seeing at 3500 RPM's?

With centrifugal and with vacuum advance.

I'll be changing all of that tomorrow or Saturday...

It currently has the twin Flexalite kit on it, and in my opinion, they do not draw enough air, and they create a restriction when on the highway.

Which kit is that, the truck one, like the 298?

Only Flex-a-Lite fans that I've seen work are the Black Magic ones and the full size truck ones.


You basically need about more than 3500 cfm+ , but the ratings are not standardized, so at times you just have to try or see it in action.

At 3500 rpm I would think it would run hot on a long distance.
Can you try a taller tire to help gear ratio maybe. or a different gear?
