I bet you are right. I think I will set it to L 4 BTC, T 4 ATC at idle tonight since there will not be anyone around to hold the trottle above 4k to see how it goes. I will probably change it over the weekend with some help.

Well I tried messing with the timing last night and I need to bump the distributer over a tooth because I can't get enough adjustment out of it the way it is. It always drove me nuts the way the distributer adjustment is. I like the way old V8s are where you can rotate the distributer quite a bit.

I installed a new Exedy street/strip HD clutch and pressure plate over the weekend. It is a better shifting clutch over the Centerforce II setup I had. I don't think this would have changed whp at all though but I think it helps 1/4 times.

I hooked the vac advances back up and did the timing at the 4k. The car seens to pull better but I will not know for sure untill I can get it back on the dyno.
