Thoughts on getting an Advanced Timing Plate

[ETR174]

I've heard that getting a Advanced Timing Plate and setting it +4 Degrees will improve your low and mid RPM acceleration and I wanted to see if it is a good idea for my set up and see if there is anything else needed to be done after installing it. I have Wiseco forged 64.75mm pistons, Wiseco forged rods, crank, entire bottom end, and I run 93 octane gas with Golden Spectro 32:1 Also does this effect jetting at all?

Can't go wrong with +4, I'm running +6 on mine, but on race fuel. Not sure on the jetting, but I heard to check your plugs to make sure it's not lean or anything.

get one, and always check jetting after making modifications.

Yep. + 4 is good. No head work right?

Just check the plugs for deto and heat.

[ETR174]

Ok thanks. No head work. No porting. Will the advanced timing make my motor revv faster?

[trickedcarbine]

Get up in the revs faster yes. More rpm, no. Actually less RPM.

[ETR174]

Ok yeah that's what I meant. Ok, there a brand you would recommend?

[trickedcarbine]

Mattoon or chariot

Alright thanks When I get some money that'll be the next thing on my list lol

At this point I would pass on the cheap cast plates in favor of a billet plate. I have a Pro Design in mine but it was before you really had choices on which billet plate you wanted to run.

[ETR174]

Ok I'll keep that in mind.

[trickedcarbine]

Like I said, Mattoon or Chariot.

[ETR174]

Well I hate to go with a cheap one but I'm desperate lol Would this work? http://pages.ebay.com/motors/link/?nav=item.view&id=331271238981&alt=web

Just mod your stock one for free ifyou want to go cheapest route.

[ETR174]

I would do that but I feel like I would screw it up.
