hey, what is the ideal timing for a 100shot from a wet kit, 10*? I tried out a 75shot with 8* timing, motor was very weak with 8*, Upped it too a 100shot just not sure what best timing is to use I would think more then 8*, also is it best to have nozzle in intake manifold (mine has spots for it...rpm performer) or is it better in my C&L tube?

Thanks!

some people run 8* and some run 10*. With my 100 dry shot I feel safe with 8* of timing. I think if I were you id play it save and go with 8* and you should be fine....also I think the nozzle should be in ur c&l tube and not ur intake, thats probably why u dont feel as much, its not mixing properly
