just wondering what kind of things i should look for with a timing advance? more bottom end, less bottom end more top end,less top end, higher egts, quicker spool basically the good, the bad and the be weary of. trucks a 93 single wheel in the process of a tranny build with better torque convertor, turned up pump, bhaf, stacks, and shopping for a turbo better suited for towing oh and about how many degrees is a good number

 

adavancing timing will yeild better "top" end.It does raise temps though ,as well as cylinder pressure.to much and youll blow a HG.I wouldnt go above 1200f. If thats what your talking about.

 

your pyro should read lower because you are burning all the fuel more efficently. You will see a good jump in fuel milage and better throtte responce. 1/16" to 1/8" bump should not yeild and bad traits unless there is already a problem. I would not tow heavy with any more then a 1/8" bump.

 

when you advance it would be rotated to the motor(top) or away?

 

yes the top goes towads the engine. If you look were the pump meets the timing case there should be a mark on it (if not make one with a chisle) use that mark to mearsure your distance.

 

sweeeet man i freakin love this truck. other than the tranny i feel like ive gained twice the horsepower and torque for like 30 bucks cant do that with a newer cummins
