High compression blues.
And, I am happy to report that I have finally gotten rid of the ping!!
Not sure which it is yet, but it's either a distributor or a revnator ignition box. Or combo of both? Havent had time to experiment but I changed the box for a ten dollar auto zone ecu and put my old firecore distributor back in and set at 16 initial and it is no longer pinging.
I'll be sure and follow up once I have time to play process of elimination and let you guys know what it was.
Myself, and several of my more experienced engine tuning friends have played with the timing forever, so I'm thinking something malfunctioned or wore out with one of those two parts.
At any rate, I'm happy the thing is running properly again.
Also, found a mopar .557 solid lifter cam the other day. I'm hoping this takes my pile into the 11's!
Thanks for all the help guys. I'll keep you posted. Been working a ton but I'll try and experiment with it this weekend.
