Re: timing without a timer?

to the board from Mid-MO!!!

You'll find this place to become your second home. There's tons of information, friends, parts, .... and so much more.

Follow either Jerry's suggestion, or check out the 67-72 Message Board, as we have some tried and true mechanics on this site. Best of luck!

2-man job, one in the vehicle with it loaded up in gear, other under the hood, adjust till pinging goes away or it runs the best under load
