Advancing timing ques w/pic

[speedfreek]

I just installed the CR ignition. There was no way to advance the timing so I slotted the bottom hole on this plate so I could adjust it. Should I advance it or leave it alone? http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k264/pnewell44/000_1384.jpg

I would leave it alone.

I have never analyzed the CR ignition curve, but I believe it's fairly aggressive. As such, I wouldn't advance it any more. You take it too far, and you've got detonation.

Yep, from what I've been reading, it's fixed right where it's supposed to be so I won't mess with it.

you can adjust it bu moving the stator forward/back in the slot. Moving it forward will advance the timing and back will retard it. You want to put it in the center of the top slot, thats alittle advanced of a stock ignition.
