Timing, 6 degrees alright?

[sled_dog]

Factory specs are for 4 degrees before on the 305 that was in my truck, I replaced it with a 350 and set my timing today to about 6 degrees before. I had been running it for about 2 weeks at about 10 degrees before. Seems smoother at higher Rs. Should I take the time and set it back to 4 degrees or what?

If it runs good with 6 degrees leave it. It is about middle of the road timing wise. It isn't high, and it isn't too low. You can try and advance it a little and see how it does, but personally if it runs fine then leave it alone.

according to the 1972 manual that I have... for a stick it should be at 4 and an auto should be at 8.
