I'm currently running all the stuff in my signature, with the b303 having been degreed in 2 degrees advance. I'm now wondering if i should try going straight up to shave a little more time at the drag strip? If anybody has any suggestions it'd be much appreciated. The car is half apart right now so it'd be a good time to do it...

all i have been told is that advancing the B-cam only helps, so if u put it straight up, it may hurt u.

PM thumper460 about it, he knows alot about the B-cam and advancing it

I feel that the cam could be bumped 2 more degrees!! the mid to top will be better and the low end will allow better 60 fts ( allowing for hook up)... If your tires are NOT hooking , putting the cam back to 0 will take away the add'l torque you gained by advancing!! Top end pull thru the qtr will be better at 4* advanced ( Icl at 103*)

Just me................................
