Is there a "standard" for 289 Timing? I am trying to dial in my car and it was set at near, BTC, causing a lot of backfiring (Pic). I found a 289 forum online and it suggest just setting for 8 degrees Before TDC, and it's "that simple". I'm running an MSD 6A Ignition and MSD Blaster 2 coil, and MSD distributor. Brand new plugs gapped at .044
Cannnot get pics to upload...I will try later.
Still backfiring a bit when letting off the throttle.
1. How normal is the backfiring?
2. Suggestions on setting the timing differently?
