Ive run my car with total timing before also.

I ran 36 total. My car felt much stronger in the lower rpms also. This is because you have full timing in ALL the time.

I was told by several people that it was hard on the engine to do this, but I got no reason why. So as far as that goes I still really don't know.

Especially with you having 3.08 gears I imagine the total timing really helps. I just went ahead and put the spout back in and set 16 inital with mine since I have 3.73s and it revs up quick.

Untill you find out a real reason that its bad I would say leave it w/ total timing.

Heck I think I'm going to switch my car back to total timing too, its definatly more fun to drive that way, snappier at the lower rpm's for sure.
