how many degrees is stock and what should it get mine changed to?

 

Assuming you're running a 215 pump you should be @ 13.5 degrees.

I assume you're running stock injectors, stock head gasket and stock studs? As you bump timing you increase cylinder pressures, but you do decrease your EGTs. If you're basically stock I'd get nervous after 16 degrees or so.

 

When I do mine, I'm gonna bump it up to 15.5*.

 

yes im stock but what is in my sig so would you say 15.5* or 16*?

 

you should be fine with 16, i jus went to advance mine this week (thinking it was at stock timing) and it was at 19.5, so i backed it down to 16.5, wouldnt go much higher than that on a stock head and headgasket

 

15.5 - 16.5 will work great, better fuel mileage & lower egt's in the higher rpm's was the biggest difference I noticed on my 97', wouldn't go much more than 17 myself, good luck, Dusty

 

Thanx for the replies. i think ill go with 16* and see what happens

 

PM me. I have the timing tool.
