Like I said, cam timing does little to reduce detonation.
I see it all the time. Way more cam than the compression will handle and they run like crap.
The fix is less cam or more compression.
I know everyone wants one answer for detonation and how to control it but that’s not how it works.
It is the aggregate of things done when you build the engine on paper that allows you to run more compression than others do. It’s ALL of it and if someone doesn’t want to do ALL of it then they should build a low compression engine and live with it.
