This is a tech section, please don't clutter up the thread with feeble attempt at humor.

To answer the question, yes a timing advance might help the car, however because the LT1 has a distributor less ignition you need to advance the timing threw the computor via a hand help or better yet a lap top program called LT1 Edit.
