If your base is now at 16 then your total may be up in the 40 range which is pretty tall, but might still be OK depending on your piston choice and cam.
Okay thanks. I set the timing with the vacuum advanced hooked up (rookie move) so imma redo the timing this weekend and take it around the block and see what it does then. Hope for no cops cause she ain't got plates on her yet!
