[DeTomaso] Stroker timing

[rcbsons1 at aol.com]

I think the best place to start if you are having issues
is to time it by ear.. they are all different and really
run where they want to.. then throw the light on it
and see where you are and where you can go

My Pontiac will not hardly run below 24 initial
so with advance it is way out there... I finally 
locked it out at 32 and it works great

The Pantera has been timed by ear for about 4 years
411 inch dart winsor.... The water tube runs about
1/8" off of the balancer so putting a timing marker
on it was an issue.. have one on there now but
really need to check to see how close it really is 
Some day I will get to it.. but it runs fairly strong
I think there is a bunch more.. afraid of breaking it
on a dyno now since it has been so good so far
