My 422 smallblock build

Look at the center electrode. It’s got too much heat in it. I’d start by getting some timing out of it.


Where is the 34 total all in at?

It ain’t happy for dang sure.
The total timing is all in at 2200. Distributor has 2 of the light springs in it but I have other springs coming from Mancini to slow the curve down. Probably shoot for around all in at 3000 and go from there. Currently has a 6.5 power valve but I might try a 10.5. Its got a lean surge when the throttle blades are almost closed. Feels like “fish biting” when going down a slight grade.
