So from what I read on previous posts most small blocks run well around 12-14 initial 34-36 all in. I haven’t checked the timing yet but it’s running a little rough. Idling at 1100rpm, stalling out when put in reverse and stalling at stop lights. So there might be some carb tuning that needs to be done but would like to figure out the timing first. Since it’s not original to the car just wondering what you all thought.
I was told this engine was rebuilt with the following within the past year:
-Roller Rockers
-Aluminum intake
-Holly Electric Choke Carb
-Proform Distributor
-MSD Ignition
-Jones racing accessory drive kit (one wire alternator and steering pump)
-Carter racing fuel pump
With a 3:23 positraction rear (that I noticed kicks into second gear right around 11mph which seems to soon)
Also for what ever it’s worth I’m running it on normal gas from Costco.
