Default Re: Spark plug gap

That's what I thought. You can definitely tell when driving at constant speed, like 45mph. Timing has changed.
I just REALLY want the right gap, and then I can tweak the timing from there for peak performance.
Thanks Paul.

Has anyone ever used the MSD Adjustable timing control that mounts inside, so you can fine tune while driving, as opposed to bumping the distributor a little and checking responsiveness?

MSD Ignition Control

I prefer that fine tuning method, also for peak performance, or at least to know where it is in comparison to correct timing placement, for track setting.
