ignition timing?
 

does anyone know the timing on a 87 lx notch 5.0 ho ? i have no books or resources at my fingers. mostly im lazy. :laughhard

Basic timing is 10° BTDC

ideal timing is 12-13° maybe more if you don t hear pinging , with premium fuel

some cars will take upto 16* without a ping :tup

thanks guys ill give it a try
:tup

i'm at 15* stock motor. no problems.

The car has been at 15* for atleast 5 years.

thanks clean , ill give 15 a try. and i think ill start wit da exhaust :tup
