Timing on a (not stock) L-48
Hey everyone
I took, my Haynes 77 manual and it says 8 for an L48 engine (stock).
My L48 isn't stock anymore:
- Longtube headers
- 2101 intake (no EGR)
- All emission equipment removed
- 2,5" true dual exhaust (no mufflers)
- Original Qjet carb.
What should my timing be set at?

Follow the paper.
The engine is pretty close to stock, so it shouldn't be hard to set the timing. Stock numbers will be a good starting point.
Your changes will affect the carb settings more.
