everything is good and well with my car, just one thing

whenever i'm in the powerband in my engine (2500-5500) and i proceed to engage full throttle action, i get this wierd racheting sound coming from the engine bay....

my first worry was that the timing was way off....I adjusted it and the dwell and nothing has changed....

timing is presently at 0deg at 3500rpm...runs great, except at full throttle.

Should be closer to 27deg at 3500 rpms with the vacuum advace pluged.
Slits is right, if it were at 0 at 3500 rpms your car should barely run.
I've always though pings and knocks sound like just that, a knock(door style, Hello) or someone tapping on the engine with a hammer, ping.
