This is correct
To some degree yes if you look at it in the way you just did.
In general no, because its fixated on a belief that extremely early timing and lean burns produce power.

Sorry, My post was referencing
Sorry your post #101 on vac adv is totally incorrect. Set any Chrysler 6 or V8 engine to the factory initial 6-12* timing. With the engine idling, turn the dist slowly to advance the timing. Idle rpm will increase [ more hp ] & vacuum will increase [ increased efficiency ].
@71GSSDemon mentioned he had read Shrinker's posts, in particular the paragraph from post #10. Bewy obviously chose not to
, or did but choses to believe the current magazine writers are more knowledgable. The two big points from Shrinker in those two paragraphs is that early timing goes with lean burns and there has to be enough later burn to push the exhaust out. Elsewhere he explains why lean burns are foolish at idle, but the bottom line is they don't make power. Maybe I can dig that out later and post it up. Tests in neutral do not indictate power.
@71GSSDemon following upo on 512stroker's question. Remind us. Was the vacuum advance connected during this last drive? and if so where?
