lol, theyre used to older cars, i think both the mach and my neigbors 65 GT350 are aroud 10 degrees, which is why they thought that, lol

lets just say he knows what hes doing, he restored a 56 Tbird 14 years ago that still wins shows


they most DEFINATELY need to start listening to me when it comes to my car though...

i lol'd at the bumper!

a buddy that helped me with my nitrous install set my timing to 0* (around there it was about -2-+2 as the line on the 0* mark was big)

when i bumped it to 8* base, it ran twice as good, pulled alot harder down low.
car sounded better with horrible timing, but felt weak down low.



idk, im no "guru" but with thouse mod's your car should feel beastly! so somethings up.

maybe a dyno run at the least to see whats up? (pwr output, a/f, play with timing, etc)
