I do not know how all the variables work but.Cosider a built 427 FE sideoiler +.020" over, aluminum heads ==11.5 to 1 compression ratio.Comp cams solid lifter cam 242 ° intake and 252° exhaust @.050" .598" lift , the cam came with 4° advance built in so its timed straight up, aluminum flywheel , 3.56 rear gears,2800 lb car sea level, 92 octane
If so much initial advance is a good thing.Why do manufactures reccamend numbers like 6° bftdc or so?
