I’ve always been one for advancing the cam. But reading about this 292, I heard enough to put it straight up. But I like what you’re saying and I’m going to advance 4°. I like that idea. Besides the bottom end grunt, I’m guessing that increased cylinder pressure would help all the way down the track.
Plus, it’s a lot cheaper than a converter! This combo seems to have been put together pretty well. But the converter does seem dated. It seems like they tried to keep the stall low because it was a street vehicle. I haven’t used any, but I hear converters are way better than they used to be.
