Diego, my car liked 21*. Didn't really gain any power at 22 or 23

You running TR6's or BR7EF's??

I tried to bring the timing down today and lean on it some and she didn't like it. Anything below 21* and she feels "bumpy". Bring it back to 23+* and she smooths out.

I had BR7EF's but i changed them out for TR6s. Blower cars like the TR6s, turbo cars like BR7EFs. I had an issue with spark blowout around 6k (this was with the br7ef plugs) i changed them and it fixed the problem. Timing was kept at 21* i think, ill ask Ken to double check

just up the timing 1* at a time and watch your peak power and power curve and stop when it quits improving.

your cams will give out on what timing it likes before e85 will have any issues whatsoever.
