Timing is 12 degrees initial.....

I'm running Champion plugs....can't remember the part # off the top of my head, but running the plugs recommended by Edelbrock for the cylinder head.

Plugs were looking a lot cleaner the last time I changed out idle air bleeds. Pretty impressed for a car that has been sitting and idling a lot.

No pinging that I know of.....of course I couldn't hear it if it did over the sidepipes.

The vacuum is pretty steady....it bounced between 11.5 and 12.
