First of all sorry for my bad english, but I`m german.


I`ve tuned  an Olds 403 ( yes it`s not a common choice  with the following parts: Olds 5a heads with stock valves and roller rockers, Edelbrock RPM Intake and cam, 750 Edelbrock Carb, 2 1/2"dual exhaust, MSD Digital 6 plus Ignition. The stock ignition setting is static 20 degrees BCD, but now with the higher compression and the other parts I think it will be different. Wich is the best way to find it out and is it nearly to 23 or 17 degrees.


Thanks


Oliver

I would drop a degree for every full point of compression you increase, depending on the cam specs.
