well then your at stock, bump it to 14 with the spout out this will give you 24 total but then again i forgot about you running a stroker so you will prolly be able to go up to 20 or so with 93 octane. the only problem im having now is my t-5 is getting some serious abuse and slinging oil preety bad. im currently looking at the aei super glide trannys since im going with an automatic on the new 347 stroker anyways. by the way im working again now but in a couple weeks im gonna be back home and you better be ready to go to the track even if you arent racing.

ORIGINAL: 94StinkinLincoln

hey iceman, im gonna bump mine, what ya reccommend? a guy told me that TW heads like around 33 degrees to make the most power. i got eddy's and like 10:1CR. i got it set at the stock 10* and want to get some more from it. i need to get it tuned b/c im pretty sure its running rich and when i bring it up to 5500rpms moving or parked, it loses so much power and acts like its choking, if i take off in first and hold it, hit 5500 and let off the gas and keep it in first it backfires. im guessing thats from being too rich. i need to pull the plugs to tell for sure.
sry to jack ur thread shelty.

no problem buddy
