Im going to have to see if i can find my old notes on when i built this thing because i cant remember for sure, but i do know it has the original grind MP 284/484 cam that if installed straight up was 108*, but i installed it either 2 or 4 degrees advanced but again i cant remember if it was 2 or 4..the more i think about it i believe it is 4 advanced. It has a race prepped thermoquad by demonsizzler that was on moparts back then. it does great on the combo! Like i said, there is no issues with it idling in gear whatsoever. the cam is 3000 stall. I have a friend that used to have a very nice chevelle with a cammed up 350 with automatic that wanted to die at idle in gear..this doesnt do any of that, i got it right with the idle on the carb and mixture screws and timing at idle. Can sit at a 10 minute redlight in gear idling just fine as if it were in park..stomp it and it will care the crap out of you! It does great except for stomping on it from a cruise and it pinging slightly. It has so much torque that when cruising at say 40 mph, you can tromp down on it without HAVING to drop down to 2nd gear and thats when she will detonate a little..not a lot but i dont want any! The timing is all in at that speed when tromping it and like we discussed, i believe slowing that timing down a little will stop that ping..If i drop the timing down to 16 at idle, it sets it all back enough where it doesnt ping, but it also takes away performance that i can feel..
