I thought you had taken it back to stock to put it in. Guess that was someone else that said that.

Well I gotta say I was pleasantly surprised with the top end power this spacer woke up in my truck. Boost is down 3-4psi, egt's seem to be down about 100 degrees at WOT, and I can definitely feel the extra timing in the seat of the pants! Doesn't feel like my trucks power flattens out on top anymore either!
Well worth the 100 bucks!

Well, at the time I put this spacer in I couldn't find my custom programmer (bent 13mm) to put my timing back to stock. Aside from the new found power up top that I had gained from the spacer, I also gained a really loud engine from Idle to about 1500rpm. I knew that it was definitely too much timing, so I searched some more and tore the shop apart and finally found my programmer...sure glad I did too.
New results from the timing spacer with timing at stock are about 2 psi less boost, egts don't climb nearly as fast anymore and still remain about 100 degrees lower than no spacer. Now because of my stock timing I have gained noticeable torque back at lower rpm and my engine idles and sounds much healthier up to 1500rpm.
I still can't believe how much this little spacer helped out my power up top in my truck, and allowed me to gain some of my torque back too!
...with 37 inch tires, this truck ****ing RIPS!! I can't wait to get some injectors in this thing! I tested each injector today as well by cracking open the bleeders, and I am most positive my pop pressures are way off as I only noticed 3 of the injectors make a noticeable difference in sound.

Default dynamic timing question

i installed the dynamic timing advance kit, while installing two washers came out with the spring, i installed the kit with the washers in the right order and it works amazing! my question is, for non i/c trucks is there supposed to be two black washers in there? one is thin and one was thick.
thank you M&H!!!!!
