Locked out timing question for boost setup question??

[nitrorocket]

On my last fuel injected small block I had the timing set at 35 degrees across the board. I had good results.

My question is, has anyone tried this with a boost motor? I would hate to set timing at only 20 degrees across the board, as it would really hurt power out of boost. Any thoughts on this. The only reason I am asking, Is I was trying to find an easy way out of my problem. That is, what chart controls the timing. If I remember right, I found 4, or 3, tables that I can adjust the timing. I modified the hihg octane table, but I am still recording higher timing #'s then I commanded. Which charts should I be modifying??

Any ideas?

18 is the max i would start out with.

Do you have that chart in english??? J/K.

I assume I should try entering that into my timing chart? What one?

[Dirk Diggler]

You wont be able to copy and paste it. He may have to comma delimit that in order for you to paste it into the high octane table

[nitrorocket]

Could he send it on an excel spreadsheet and then I could copy and paste? Would that work. No big deal really, I can just manualy enter the numbers into each row all across. Thanks.

On my last fuel injected small block I had the timing set at 35 degrees across the board. I had good results.

My question is, has anyone tried this with a boost motor? I would hate to set timing at only 20 degrees across the board, as it would really hurt power out of boost. Any thoughts on this. The only reason I am asking, Is I was trying to find an easy way out of my problem. That is, what chart controls the timing. If I remember right, I found 4, or 3, tables that I can adjust the timing. I modified the hihg octane table, but I am still recording higher timing #'s then I commanded. Which charts should I be modifying??

Any ideas?

Ahh, 35 timing with the sort of boost you will be running.....NO,NO.
I would think 20deg is about the absolute most you will get away with.

Cheers,
Ross

[SS2win]

The reason you don't run the same timing table as a NA motor is that under boost the flame front travels faster thus negating the need for lots of advance. You're not loosing anything - just giving the engine what it wants.

[Scoota]

35 degrees across the board.

Recipe for a melt down.
Run that timing and I'm sure your local metal recycler's will take the scrap alloy at a good price.

As SS2win has said, 'just giving the engine what it wants'.


Cheers Scotty.

I did'nt mean to set the timing to 35 degrees on my turbo setup. I said I had it at 35 for my n/a setup. If you re-read, I was asking about 20 across the board. Wait4me has so nicely sent me a good timing map for me to start with. Thanks!

Last thing. I am loading it nto my program. The scaling for the OZ/CYLINDER accross the top of my Spark high octane table is totally different and ranges from .003 to .042. Should I copy the new setup Wait4me sent and rescale the map to match the one he sent me? His goes from .08 to 1.2. Is that what I need for the 3 bar setup with boost coming on at about 2800 rpm?

Let me know ASAP so I get fire this thing up! Thanks.

On my last fuel injected small block I had the timing set at 35 degrees across the board. I had good results.

My question is, has anyone tried this with a boost motor? I would hate to set timing at only 20 degrees across the board, as it would really hurt power out of boost. ....



re-read, re-confused. well anyway you know what is up now... thanks to wait4me on a starter timing table.

Hopefully someone can answer my last reply, The chart calibrations are way differet in the top row. Is this ok to use. How should I enter it? It seems to be drastically rescaled compared to my High octane table. Should it be rescaled? Let me know what I should do. Thanks Wait4me.
