When i got the new injection pump i surposely setted my timeing at 16.5 but some how it jumped to 19.1degrees. So i said screw it and drove it with the stock HG and head bolts and i was fine but buddy you wanna talk about difference in power!!

No joke man. It scared the f**k out of me when i pulled outside of the parking lot and wanted to be cute and the tail end of the truck fish-tailed in on comming traffic:scare2:

i REALLY wouldnt recommend goin to 19 without studs. sometimes ya get lucky n stuff holds on, but 99.9% of the time it wont. its just like my turbo, i know for a fact it shouldnt be pushin 50psi, but for some unknown reason its still kickin. im just lucky right now, but eventually it WILL go bang

im at 26 degs but i have a s400 with allen head bolts. bigger turbos reduce drive pressure. you cant start the dang thing this time of year very good. good on the track in the summer time. not for the dd:tu:

30* at the pump here with head studs.

Timing in a nut schell ... would you rather have top end power, mid range, or low end torque?

blazier18 12-03-2010 12:47 PM

mid to top end power and does it reduce smoke
