Hey, i got a 1988 firebird v8 5.0 TBI motor.
i checked my timing last night with the tan/blackwire disconnected (like it says in under my hood, right next to the blower motor resistor) and set my timing to 0* (like it said under my hood)
but now everywhere i look, people say it should be 6* Before top dead center.
What is the correct timing for my car? please help.
(also, to reset the computer, just unplug negative battery terminal for like 20 mins, right?)

i feel like such a noob, first v8, i usually modified imports until this baby came into my life.

Should be set at whatever it said under the hood. So you have it set right.
