Default cam gear setting

could anybody out there give me the preffered setting I should put the cam gear at for more torque on my 94 ex. I understand that all engines are different but I have no dyno available around me. I live in Lake Havasu, and there is nothing in this town or that has come out of this town that is any good other than the girls gone wild (spring break). all input is appreciated

for high end power = retard the timing
for low end = advance it

if there is no dyno, test it yourself...maybe you will find some setting which feels fast to you...

do you have a recommendation as far as how many degrees to adjust it for more low end power

try about 2 degrees to start (usually one mark on the cam gear)
