I had them decked .035 and due to gas prices i was running 87 w/10 degrees initial timing seems i should of raised the compression a good bit but no pinging @ 10* still 87 octane??
does this seem possable?
Also i home ported heads and intake, opened exhuast to stock
gasket open them up a lot, gasket matched intake ports about 1" deep ,I also port matched lower intake (head side) took out a lot of aluminum even wore a hole in #5 runner. anyway do you guys think i should raise fuel press.?
Thanks sorry so long...
