Reply to "What's Your Experience/Advice for Ignition Timing with High Swirl Heads?"

Hi George,

About ten years ago, Scott Cook suggested"Set up for mechanical advance. 18-20° initial at Idle. Total 28° all in by  3200rpm."  That was for a 390 cu in Cleveland with 10.0:1 CR and Scott's heads and intake manifold.

18-20° initial would make hot starts difficult unless the ignition system had a 10° retard during starting.  (Hmmm...Pantera Electronics EIS ?   )
