Seting Initial Timing w/Chip

Hello Jay

That is a question than can be tough to give an accurate answer

You really don't know where the dizzy was when the chip was burned

If it was at 10 ... then every additional degree you add in with the dizzy
will be a global adder to whatever the Pro Tuner did to the spark tables.

Well ... now that I looked at what I just typed

It works the same no matter where the dizzy was when the chip was
burned

Never the less ... you get the idea ... I hope
I'm trying to get across

Now ... If it pings with the dizzy at 12

Then you basically got two choices

1 Back down on the spark
2 Up the octane count

Well ... I guess you could do both

I mean ... Maybe he had the tune set to be aggressive
and
He was running good gas to obtain the most spark possible

I'll confess to using that method

I know what you mean Jay

If you decide to go with the Tweecer and the self tune thing
which btw
I highly reccommend cause it has worked out pretty good for me

I'd skip the dyno ... for a while :Word:

I'd get familiar with tuning your Stang in Closed AND Open Loop

You then use the street to get to like 97 or 98% on a perfect tune

That way ... when you go to the dyno ............

All you gotta do is + or - a little spark or fuel to make maximum power
