    Yea you don’t want it any wider than 50.
    Your not pushing enough compression or fuel to warrant it.
    In fact higher compression needs smaller gap.
    If it was me and you drive it a while the next set of plugs you put in I would see how it is at 45 and be honest with it.

    I just took the Camaro out for a little test hit and I'm thinking of changing the Advance curve

    My buddy set it up with a blue " light" and silver " light" adv springs with a blue 21° adv stop bushing . This curve is at full advance at 2200rpm , initial at 14° and total 37°

    I'm thinking of going silver " light " springs which will be full advance by 900 rpm

    So you got full advance at driving rpm.
    What’s your idle rpm?

    You woodworking guys would like to visit my basement. I have all of my father's woodworking tools - he is a retired master cabinet maker. There's a Rockwell shaper down there, jointer, planer, more saws than I'll ever need, lathe, and an assortment of routers.

    When I was given the equipment, I was told "there's never been any blood on these tools, don't start now". BTW, sandals in the workshop???

    Man I'm jealous of that asparagus of all things LOL! I looked through every bunch at the store today and they were the size of small trees. I prefer the smaller ones. Just like you have...

    Have some steak salted and sitting for almost an hour now, guess it is time to go out and start the grill. Hope your meal turns out fantastic bet it will!

    It was easier to get them down there than it'll be to bring them out. Main difference is that I was younger and had a better back when they were brought over.
