Continuing ignition timing debate from the 416 thread.

I’m done discussing it. I can’t convince you that a curve is a good thing when it picks up power even if it’s not in the rpm range the engine runs in.

It’s a pretty simple concept. A curve can and most times will make more power everywhere.

So how is that a bad thing? You can be in race detonation and not know it, but the engine does.

If you change oil (different but the same) and the engine picks up power what does that tell you? It says the engine has less friction of several types. Even if it’s only 10 hp. Or 7 hp. That is reduced friction from somewhere in the engine.

It’s the same with a curve. I have yet to see a curve hurt power in any rpm range.

If you make a change and the engine picks up power how is that BAD? I mean WTF are you even arguing?

Discuss away but I’m done.
