How do you know how much to adv on timing?

[01bansheefox]

Just curious on how you adv your timing, whats it based on?

[rocketboy]

4-5 degress advancment for a mild to dune/recreational drag ported banshees and often guys will go up to a 7 +degree on more heavily modifed setups such as cheetah cubs and or bigbores ,strokers. the stock ignition timing is setup to spike at a lower rpm than what the motor is now capable of with higher port timing numbers and performance mods,so basicaly stock ignition timing is designed for a stock banshee with 25lb french horn pipes

would some fattys allow me to go +4 safely?

Aftermarket ignitions...? $$$? well worth it?

I ran +5 with my t5's with no problem, so you should be fine at +4

Were you running +5 with the T5's without porting. I haven't had any port work done... YET. But I've got a ricky stator timing plate that should be here by Thursday. Trying to figure out if I will be making a difference advancing the timing now. Even if not, I can always set at 0 degrees until I get the porting done.

Well said..

[badassbanshee479]

yeah +5 was with stock cylinders, no porting. my old setup was t5's noss head with 19cc domes ported stock cages with tdr reeds, +5 on the timing, stock carbs with the dyno jet jet kit, and a 2 into 1 air filter
