Torque convertor and detonation

Understood. Current curve is suitable with 12* initial, 34* total so I will just dial it back and stop trying to get this motor to do something its not built for. A new stall convertor will be a nice upgrade, separately from this issue. It's funny, you talk about this motor like it is a dog based on the compression and mild cam, but to me it feels great with tons of power, its all relative I guess. I am satisfied with what I have, just want to tune it properly.
