    total advance for a 500 caddy

     



    does anyone know or have a ballpark idea??
    i just was checking total advance on my caddy approx 38 degrees total with vacume advance hooked up , how much advance should it have i still have no ping or heat problem.
    in thinking something close to a bb chevy would be in the ballpark.

    In the unlikely event that you don't find a good answer here, check at this site. They are the Big Caddy experts and have a very helpful forum, sorta like the folks that hang out here.

    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!
