just pull back just before the pistons melt in to the oil pan if you have 10 on the crank and 26 in the dist then its 36. or 12 on the crank and 24 is 36 good place to start go to lighter springs to get it all in at 3000 or lower 2500. this works for me and have set up many this way this works i would not run 40 on it should not need that much . if you have a MSD they are very easy to do .what do you have ?you can pull 50 but will help around town but you do not need it under aloadIrish Diplomacy ..the ability to tell someone to go to Hell ,,So that they will look forward to to the trip

Just trying to get all the help I can I am going to go with the consensus and crank down the initial back to around 12 so that I have a total of around 36. In the past I have found that the guys on the Chevelle forum know Chevelles but you guys know more about engines.

I seem to remember that the vacume on a ford was adjustable with a allen wrench thru the inside of the nipple on the dist vacume diaphram---but remember I'm getting old--what were we talking about?
