Re: Advancing and Retarding?
Head to your local magazine store and pick up a copy of "Chevy High Performance" magazine, or better yet get a subscription. Every month there's articles for novices. Check out their website too, http://www.chevyhiperformance.com
For more background on building peformance Chevy engines, have a look at:
http://www.amazon.com/John-Lingenfel...2545403&sr=8-5
http://www.amazon.com/Build-Performa...2545403&sr=8-2
http://www.amazon.com/Small-Block-Ch...2545403&sr=8-9
http://www.amazon.com/Chevrolet-Powe...2545687&sr=1-1
When it comes time to actually start building, either of these will show you what to do:
http://www.amazon.com/Rebuild-Small-...2545403&sr=8-4
http://www.amazon.com/How-Rebuild-Yo...2545403&sr=8-1
Then when you've got specific questions, it'll be easier to come back and get informed answers when we're all on the same page.

Re: Advancing and Retarding?

we all know that we are going to have differing opinions about the subject material that is disscussed on this site
we have to make a choice before we post
a-is this helping anyone
b-does this person that started the tread worth our time and effort
c-does someone else, with a real problem deserve out attention
our cars are too bad A$$ to argue points that are not making the thirdgen the best cars on the road
when all is said and done I dont agree with alot of things that are said and done- its human
the hard part is keepin my mouth shut and movin on

Re: Advancing and Retarding?
Im sure there are newbies interested in engine building that are reading the thread and learning a lot.
Balancing cost, power, and practicality is something everyone should be exposed to.
