Well I finished my MSD install. Done.. (for now) I ended up as follows.. If I go more than 10 degrees initial I can't keep the idle below 1050 rpm.. but I find if I go more than 36 degrees total it falls off on the top end.. So I am at 10 degrees initial with 35 overall at 2200 rpm.. I started at 3200, (blue springs) then 2800 (blue/silver springs) and finally I used the lightest springs, (silver) without pinging through the rpm range.

Regards
