The use of a piston stop for finding true TDC works great unless you are using angled plug heads. At least it doesn't work on mine as I already tried that and they are ProMaxx Performance 2168 Patriot Performance SB-Chevy Aluminum Freedom Series Heads. the stop just won't seem to stop the piston in either direction. So I am going to use an MSD Timing Tape and apply it to the Fluidampr using the info a previously posted. Hoping the 10 degree difference info I got from Nick Orefice at Fluidampr will help. He is going to run all this information up the management chain to see if he can get this corrected for those earlier engine timing marks to be corrected.
