Since the 427 went in (6 months ago) i have been running
32*degrees total timing. No rattles,no issues,other then grip.
Decided to back the timing off a little to see if i could kill some
torque. Dropped it back to about 29.5* just drove it for a few minutes.
Not sure if it was my imagination or not,but it seemed a little smoother
at low cruise rpm's.
The surprise came on a 2nd gear stomp. Cruising at a steady 40,
4k,stepped on it and at about 5500 the tires broke loose. Since putting
the hoosiers (QTP 28x11.50 16lb) on,they feel on the edge but generally
don't let go on a 2nd gear stomp. And the air was awful,just over 2100' DA.
A few minutes later,tried again with the same result. Quickly turned the car
around. (tires getting some heat) 3rd try was on the edge but it stuck.
Did i find a little bit...or just a fluke ? This remains to be determined.
