Re: SBC base timing

Please define "PORTED vacuum".

- I tape the ends on the advance hose/ports.

- I have used the vacuum gauge and tried for the highest reading which was around 13-14 if I recall.

I make sure I like the way it starts, then road test it for any pinging and retard it slightly, get back in and test.

Any advice or tips will be considered!
