I'm a bit of a rookie when it comes to specifics so I usually research the site for the right direction and I need some help with the proper timing on my fresh engine re-build (or at least a good place to start)
he's what I put together:
350 - .40 bore with JE forged flat top pistons and is running a 400 crank
Brodix Aluminum Heads 102100
70 cc chamber - 200cc intake runner - 2.020 in intake valve with a 1.600 exhaust - max lift .575 in
Lunati Cam and Lifters, Hydraulic Flat Tappet, Duration 268/276, Lift .489/.504,
1.50 ratio Aluminum Roller Rockers
RPM Air Gap Intake
Holley 750
Using a stock HEI distributor with the Acell Super Coil nice plug wires and the E3 plugs in the gap that Brodix recommended for the heads.
I know I could have went a lot more aggressive on the cam but wanted to keep it more road friendly and as built it should be an animal between the 1500-5500 rpm range.
What is the best way to get the timing perfect? And where is the best place to start? Right now it runs fine for a bit then when she gets up to operating temperature she seams to bog down.
Thanks in advance for the help,
Don
