What should SBC timing be set at?
Depending on your cylinder heads, compression ratio, camshaft, and centrifugal advance curve in the distributor, "normal" base timing for a street high-perf small-block Chevy is somewhere in the 12- to 18-degree before top dead center (BTDC) range, with total timing at full centrifugal advance about 34 to 36 degrees ...
What is the correct timing for a Chevy 350?
The timing can vary between 2 and 12 degrees BTDC, the recommended spark plugs are different and even the plug gaps vary. In most cases starting out with 12 degrees of initial advance is about right.
