Wow i'm at 15 degrees with 85 octane and no pinging at all. Maybe altitude has some effect on it.

I had mine at 14, and it pinged w/93 in it. So I backed off to 13. I'm guessing the timing marks on the balancer aren't very accurate. Everyone seems to have different results.

I have heard 3-4 hp per degree of timing............I would probably say closer to three.
