What Did You Do To Your G-Body Today? [2020]

You should be able to crank it up around 40-45 in the low load areas. That's where my trucks are and they don't seem to mind. Do you have a knock sensor setup with that?

I have vortec heads so they don't need that much advance plus if you take a look at the graphs for the run I can only draw the timing back a total of 25°. On our 602 and 604 crate race engines which are 5.7 we ran 36° total timing. I don't need a knock sensor

My 1500 has Vortec heads and takes it. More timing in the low load areas makes a huge difference in throttle response. NA I was around 32-34 degrees total timing WOT on 91 octane at 6000' elevation. Not sure what I was down at sea level, but it was probably 30 or less.

Got axle bearings and seals thrown in the 8.8, went ahead and threw the 5 lug axles in. Went to spin them and found I definitely tightened the pinion nut too much. Guess I’m taking this thing apart again.

I mean you could always make your own with H4 conversion housing and LED parts from The Retrofit Source.

I know I’m going to attempt to stuff projectors in 4x6 housings.

These headlights use 9003 build witch I think is the same as h4

Got 2 new tires put on the rear, new valve stems in all 4, and one of my new ****ing front tires plugged. Bouta clean the garage, prepping for some fun things I have planned that will take me some time and I'll need the space for.

got a late start, mowed 6 miles of grass at my son's place, then went for a swim in their salt water pool and then pulled the GP out, I reset the timing to 34° and set up a new curve. What I like about the box is if the timing is too far advance making the starter work I took an extra 2° off at 200 rpm and that cured it. Did some sanding on the repairs on the quarter panels and called it a day....
