u useally want to retard the ex and advance the intake but it needs to be dyno tuned for good results, your only going to get around 4hp out of them unless your boosted or have a n/a monster

where did 4hp come from?

I cant tell you how much you will gain as different setups will want different settings which takes a dyno to discover.

there is no "magic" number that you set the gears to.

understood, im just trying to figure out how these all motor h22's running like 300 to 350+ hp!! Because all i can think of is changing out the sleeves, crank, rods, cam shaft and gears. but i didnt think changing those out would increase the hp that much...

you didnt think changing internal parts would gain much???

guys are running 300 whp with incredibly wild cams, high compression, big bore, big stroke, wild porting...everything.
