Too much timing???

But, within the realm of possibility, for sure.

This is only marginally-pertinent to this discussion, but, one of the (many) advantages of running a turbocharged slant six is, the redline on those motors is usually pretty low; the two I always refer to make upwards of 500 horsepower and, do it all below 5,500 rpm.

That is such a low engine-speed, most engine builders think it's a waste of time to use anything but a stock distributor. I think they may be right. My own setup uses an electronic MOPAR lean burn distributor hooked to an MSD 6-AL box, with a MSD Blaster II coil..... that's all.

So far (fifteen pounds of boost) it has given zero problems. If I tried to turn it 7,500 RPM, it might well be a different story. :oops:

But, that won't happen; there's no point...
LOL, I used to race my Opel stock points distributors to over 8000 RPM ALL the time... I mean thousands of times to 8000 RPM; the 2-3 shift jump was pretty crappy in that transmission. A 4 banger has plenty of dwell time no matter what though... so maybe that is cheating.
