Some input from my experience.... In my testing, advanced timing raises head temps but not oil temps. Retarded timing raises oil temps but not head temps. Just some real life results to throw into the mix. This is assuming a clean system.
No matter what, you have to have a good baseline, meaning your valve adjusts have to be ON and any other random factors need to be clear, including rats nests in the airflow and overload of gunk anywhere. Get it clean, time it right..... Report back. |
