Just wondering what kind of timing i should be running on my 12a when i turbo it? I have a streetported motor and a 47 OER carb and 1 piece intake. Im going to be putting on a gt35r and running about 15 psi intercooled.

 

12 degrees is safe

 

hmmmm i am not sure..i ran 22 degrees on my peri port..but thats NA....with locked vaccumm
for a turbo you surely needed it a bit more retarded...maybe 12 is good, but what about some way to control that ? would the advanced vaccum be wise here?

 

The timing I'm using on my 12AT highcompressor motor is pretty conservative and I'm still making really good power. I have a small turbo port myself. I'm probably using around 6BTDC at 13psi. It certainly is no slouch.

 

do any of you have a locked distributor? or does anyone know how to go about doing it? im sure its not too dificult but jsut wondering? thanks

 

its not hard...remove the vaccum actuators and the little arms and I just center up the plate and i weld it with a small tack.....this is how i have done it for yrs, worked gret fro me at 20 degrees locked, not sure for you..
anyone?

 

Think you could post a pic of that? thanks
