Hey fella's, i have two questions i am sure are asked frequently >

1: Do i set my timing to 14* with the base timing plug out..?

2: I recently bought a 347 stroker, i have an adjustable fuel press regulator, and a 190lph fuel pump. 70MM TB with EGR spacer to match. 24#'ers with a matching 24# MAF. According to my AutoMeter guage the fuel press is 40psi with the vacuum off. The car has a hesitation, but runs great.. any suggestions..?

and out of sheer curiosity, whats the cheapest way out to convert my 89lx to 5 lug..?

thank you much!

1: Yes

2: Checked Vauum for any leaks? And the cheapest way would be to get the spindles and what not off of a 94-95 mustang, v6 or gt. And the Axles from a bronco 2 or Aerostar. There is an article about it in the articles section.
