Stopping the knock: Lower compression and ported heads...

Thanks for the clarification. The way Rob wrote it I misunderstood it, my apologies to Rob. I just don't think it would do anybody any good if they read it the same way I did, and advanced a cam 8° because it sounds like a good idea.
I have seen more than a few people get confused over reading cam cards and trying to degree camshafts properly, some of them long time car guys.
