Default Spark Table

Could anyone provide some feedback on my spark table. I am thinking of adjusting it slightly on the new motor and havent been to the dyno yet. I need to get a set of det cans made first. Honestly I still think this is pretty conservative but I still like some feedback. Many Thanks

Yeah, i mean i guess it depends on your fuel.

I was at 15 - 16* and started getting some knock in boost due to shitty fuel. Backed it down to 12* and the knock pretty much went away.

you either tune properly, for mbt, or until you find knock threshold, or you stay conservative.

that said, we tuned my friends 8.6:1 BP at 15 psi and 16 tapering to 18 and he's been absolutely raping the car for the past 2 years with no problems
