Need help setting the timing of a 305
Hi, guys! I just broke in a mildly built 305. Seeking some advice from the 305 experts, please... and please don't criticize my engine choice lol. I had a reason for going that route - the safety of a teen-ager.. ugh!
9.7:1 compression Rebuilt 305 HO heads Comp Cams XE256 full cam kit Edelbrock Performer RPM intake Edelbrock 1403 carb (500 cfm) Stock HEI distributor Stainless shorty headers I used a stock harmonic balancer with the zero mark painted white but it has no numbers on it. Broke in the cam today - that went fine.. Straight headers right now and it's too loud to get a good feel for the timing. I presume I need some timing tape... What initial timing should I start with and how much total timing should this engine need? Thanks for any input! Posted via Mobile Device Last edited by Econman; 08-31-2017 at 08:31 PM. |
