Is this true?

that setup you have should be able to hit 12's even with your timing way out of whack

regardless, set the base at about 10-12deg btdc as a baseline and go up from there

well, I found a few things out about my setup that I didn't know.
First, the performer intakes are not much, if any, better than stock.
Second, Mallory dizzys have slow advance rates set at the factory.
With that said, I'm swapping to a stealth intake with a 750 holley and recurve my dizzy for quicker advance curve.
Then..I should be in the 12's....or so I'm being told.

Stay tuned because if not, you might see a black, 1982 GT with a worked 351w for sale in the classifieds!!(with a fist hole through the windshield)
