1) He was driving my car and noticed it was pinging or detonating. he was going to check the timing for me. what do i want my timing to be at based on my mods below?

2)Also, I read a post on here a while back about people with Holley systemax kits like i have. It talked about adding something to the pcv valve or a tube out of it so that it doesnt blow oil out from there or something. I emailed him a link about how to do it (and he has an idea of what im talking about) but he lost the link. he wants to be sure he is thinking the same thing i am. i guess it is a simple thing that could possibly help out with these kits.

BONUS- ANy HP guesses b4 i take it to the dyno??

thanks for your help.
