Keep bumping it up 'til it runs like it's supposed to.
Its at 18-20 deg now and I like it there. It seems like a lot. This is my first 460 build. I have built many small blocks and 12-14 is where they liked it.Keep bumping it up 'til it runs like it's supposed to.
What affect on starting "hot" did it have,if any ?That sounds about right my 466 wouldn't run worth a crap unless it had atleast 18 initial regardless of total it wanted 18 initial. The cast iron heads like timing!
