Tony240ZT Posted February 22, 2002 Share Posted February 22, 2002 Hey guys, quick question about my `73 240Z with a L24 block, P90 head, and `83 280ZX Turbo electronics. What should I set my timing to? My compression ratio is around 7.56:1 (real low). Should I just crank it as far as I possibly can until I hear knocking, or is that really unsafe? I'm running stock boost right now, but I think I'm going to have to crank it up to get more power. My low compression ratio is making driving feel laggy. I think my timing is set to around 10 degrees advanced at idle right now. That's as far as I can advance it without removing the the shaft and moving it over a tooth or two. How well does the knock sensor do in retarding timing when it senses knocks? How much trust can I put into it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
