Cr around 11.2-4. Would 18 degrees ign. timing be safe to do?

91 octane in Ca is the max besides 'race' gas.

Not hard to back off timing, so go for it. It should be fine.

To be honest, I'm not sure. But you'll be able to tell pretty quick once you start her up.

Okay, she's pinging at start up, but after that no more? Why is that?

17 degrees seems to work okay, but how can I eliminate the pinging at start up at 18 degrees, it pulls with a lot more torque at 18 degrees.

Read this somewhere:
Your ECU is correcting the ping (detonation) by retarding your spark electronically in 2 degree increments. In other words, you're advancing too much.
