I bought a car with a MSD box and distributor. What should the timing be set at?
Thanks Dave |

I am running my 6 3.0 with an MSD digital AL6. The stock dizzy was recurved to address the WebCam 20/21 grind on the SC cams. The suggested advance of 7.5dbtdc was not working and would not allow the Webers to give any idle. Thru trial and retrial, I set my advance at 17dbtdc and the idle is good and the power band is very good up to redline. I use an OTC timing light with digital tach thereon and it really helps to dial in the tuning.
