Just got a set of 370 marine injectors with a custom plate (very aggressive). I need to get my timing set but not sure how much?

thanks, Chris

 

15-16° is good for a '94

 

Bill,
Considering what I have on my truck and plan to do, what do you suggest for my timing when I get around to adjusting it? I'm thinking 15-16*.

Steve

 

15-16 is fine for most folks, once you start going over that starting gets harder and head gaskets blow.

 

thanks for the advice guys im gonna try that later today!

 

Bill,
Thanks for the advice. Once I get the family re-settled in Colorado again and get my garage/shop equipment set up I'll check/set the timing as you suggested. That is after I get a 4" exhaust installed too.

I reset mine to 16.5*, and it starts much faster in the mornings.

 

I agree 16.5 is best..

17 and up i feel you are playing with fire unless you have a large turbo, or alot of fuel..... more than what the 370s can handle...

well i reset the timing to 15.5 but the truck shudders just wicked bad at idle to about 1250 rpm. what should i do next?
Thanks, chris

 

Bigger Dvs!! Try to find some 181s.
