Hello! Does anyone know what the correct timing would be for a 360? I have a stock mopar electronic distributor with a vacuum advance. The only thing I changed on the engine was adding an edelbrock performer intake and a 600 cfm 4bl carb. The engine came out of an 84 ramcharger.

You can start at 12-14* BTDC. Then move it until you find the fastest idle, then back off a couple of degrees.

Make sure that you check the timing with the Vac Advance disconnected, if the motor causes problems when you do reconnect the Vac Advance you will have to adjust the Vac unit not the distributor.
