91 5.7L TPI, timing specs?

what are the stock timing specs for this car.. the decal is long gone and I can't seem to find it in my shop manual. if I recall it was 6deg btdc for my 5.0L TPI iroc, is it the same for the 5.7?

I'm trying to get a bit more power out of this car, today I check the fuel pressure and found it is good at 44psi, and the timing is set to 0.

I believe the timing specs from 305 and 350 are the same on tpi cars.

Re: 91 5.7L TPI, timing specs?

Funny I just did the same on mine. Owned it for 4 years now, and done a bunch of work but never checked the timing. Doh! Mine was at 1*

Stock for the L98s is the same as the 305, 6*

I'm headed to the track tomorrow night.. lol maybe I'll pick up an extra tenth
