If it helps I have mine idling at around 12 and total is 31 in before 3,000. It's also a long rod setup though, which reduces timing requirements a tiny bit. It also has no vacuum advance right now, if it did then my idle would prolly be around 20 with full vacuum.

yeah im gonna mark at 15ish and set it just below there, to get as close to 14 as possible
but yeah tomorrow im getting a couple more flex primer, and HOPEFULLY the quart of color so i can paint the kewbra bumper. yeah i need to empty some more primer on that bitch and wetsand it.
but yeah, ill post some pics after i finish wetsanding the body, which hopefully i will not be lazy and do tomorrow, and the bumper is all on and painted and the tails are on, and lookin good
i dunno if you noticed, but i got a dent on that drivers side quarter i got to pound out, i think someone hit it with a shopping cart, i didnt notice until i was taking it off that it and the side moulding were crimped
BTW explosive, your lucky, i have to put my catted midpipe back on, still gonna be hella loud though =D
P.S. who else hates the sound of their own voice?
