'88-94 - Timing specs: 10 degrees BTDC @ 1300 RPM / 42 degrees BTDC @ 4500 RPM

'08-09 - Timing specs: 10 degrees BTDC @ 1300 RPM / 35 degrees BTDC @ 4000 RPM
Hi Sam, I am looking really hard at possibly doing this mod, but couldn't you get much the same effect by advancing the static timing? You'd get better torque down low and sufficient advance up high. Is there an easy way to adjust static timing on these engines?

Thanks in advance....no pun intended...hehe.
