Creedmoor
Recovering Fordaholic
New to Mopars but have been wrenching on Fords/Old School Toyotas for many years. Just got a mostly stock 68 Barracuda with a 318 and wanted to check the timing. The book says I should set it at 2 and a half degrees AFTER TDC. Can this be right??? For my budddy's 71 Dart with a 318 the same book says 0 degrees BTDC. I've never heard of numbers like this! I'm used to 10 and 12 degrees BTDC. What should my timing be set at? While I'm at it, what's a good manual to have for a 68 Barracuda? The only Chilton's I can find doesn't cover v8 models - WTF?
Any help appreciated!
