Timing versus carbs
Well I'll tell you when LARS says something it's best to listen. I changed out the jets on my carb and it damn sure does affect the setting og your timing. I had 36degrees @2500 and 52 degrees total. now with 075 jets she won't take 36 degres so I'm at 34 degrees@2500 otherwise my timing showed 60 degrees total. It still perplexesme how the carb affects timing but I'll just take LARS word on it and readjust as necessary. Man these cars can be finicky when it comes to a performance tune job.

Working on tuning mine today. I played with it some this morning and drove it a little bit this afternoon. Still got a little to do to it to get it right, but setting the timing by his paper has helped the throttle response quite a bit.
