    Howdy, just checking around for ignition timing tips and stumbled across y'all. Great site. I'll have to keep a better eye out for towrig stickers around town.


    my tow rig is an '87 Grand Wagoneer, 360/727, Edelbrock performer intake, Qjet 800, custom exhaust, Jacobs ignition, MSD dist, ported and polished heads, 8" lift, 35' Goodyear MTR's, D44's locked front and rear, Warn xp9500i mounted on custom front bumper

    I pull a starcraft pop-up


    Glad to meet everyone,

    Matt "mtjeeper"

    Thanks,
    I got a quick one here for ya's.

    I recently gave the Jeep a tune up and it occured to me that maybe my timing could be tweeked for better towing performance

    360/tf727auto, performer intake, Qjet800, Jacobs ignition / coil, MSD Pro-billet dist. I also run 35" MTR's on an 8" lift.

    The Haynes manual calls for 19*BTDC and I can change out the springs in the MSD dizzy. Normally I have the timing aroung 12*btdc.

    Any suggestions on a timing setup that would help towing? economy is secondary to power.

    Thanks,
    matt
