Does anyone have the initial timing for the big block 454? |
the engine the best you will get is generic advise, which is
*worthless* about 99% of the time. But since you asked:
10° BTDC @ 800 RPM
There, now go away. Don't repost this stupid question again.

What didn't you understand about that the first time?
If your advance curve goes a total of 26°, then 10° BTDC at idle will work.
It will give you 36° total advance at 2000 rpm.
If, however, your distributor advance curve goes 36°, you need to set
initial timing at 0° at idle.
Setting it at 10° BTDC at idle, will give you a total, piston-frying
advance of 46° at 2000 rpm.
As I said.......
IT DEPENDS ON THE DISTRIBUTOR'S ADVANCE CURVE!!!!!!
