I've noticed when adjusting timing with a strobe gun (distributor vacuum line plugged) that my engine seems to run smoother, although idle speeds up, as I approach 14 degrees.
I'm running Pertronix ignition, a Offenhauser manifold, Holley 8007 4-barrel, custom headers and twin flow masters . I use Chevron Supreme gas.
I currently have the timing set at 10 degrees which I believe is the factory recommendation for this engine if totally stock.
Will it hurt to run at 14 degrees.
Idle is a little "lumpy" at 10 degrees.
I have no his to go on the motor so I don't know if the cam is standard.
