Howdy - I found top dead center and confirmed that the indicator was dead on. The car runs best at 40 degree after TDC. Seems excessive - I don't know why it would want it to run at that degree.
The engine is a 327 (non-original) that apparently has had a CAM upgrade - what is in there I don't know. I'm assuming its due to the Cam - true? If so a can someone explain why? I am timing it by ear now, as opposed to a specific degree. However, I'm not sure doing it by ear really puts me where I need to be or if its masking some other problem (too rich etc)
Also I just put in an MSD dist & MSD 6AL-2 ignition box. Definite improvement for me.....However, the timing with the old dist was the same.
Thanks,
Bill
