ok, i know tha turning the distributer toward the firewall, is advancing, and away, is retarding.. so my question is , advancing = low end power and retarding = top end? does anybody still do this anymore??if so, how much have you advanced or retarded it?

 

your going to get alot of different answers....search this one

 

i tried.. i searched the all motor forum, and found nuthin..

 

search for advance timing

 

if you have a 5thgen i dont' think you can do it like that tho

 

yea.. true.. but advancing timing is more low end power, correct? and retarding is more top end?

Correct I used to think it was the other way until Jason Hunt showed me 1st hand it not . But you can go to far both directions and kill your performance all around.
