Hi
I'm about to bench test a rebuilt pinto and would like to know how many degrees BTDC I need to be.
Bottom end is 30 thou oversize, new shells, bearings etc
Top end has a bigger cam(spec unknown) mild porting to the bottom half of the inlet ports, standard valves etc and a standard 2.0ltr carburettor and extractors, that's about all I can tell ya's cause it was in bits when I got it.
 
Thanks

Holy ****!! that's a lot for my little brain to take in.
 
Thanks

Start at 6deg , depending on the compression ratio go a bit less.. the cam can be set on STD as would a stocker cam till Dyno day. Just wind the motor by hand to check all is free from binding..

Thanks mate, we haven't compression tested it we put new rings in, other than that I'm goin with standard compression ratio.
