Okay, I know some of you will not agree with what I am doing, but it works for me. I have a 89 L98 that needed a total rebuild, so I have installed the crank, rods, pistons, cam and roller lifters from a 91 LT1. As the L98 has TBI and normal distributor, I am questioning where I should set the initial timing? L98 would have been set at 0 BTDC. My thoughts are that the new version should be set 8 to 10 BTDC. Has anyone used this combo, or have any info or thoughts on what I'm doing?
