I want to spray a 125 wet shot. (kit sitting in garage) My timing is at 22-23 degrees WOT. I'm using a standalone with 110 I guess. my a/f ratio is 13.4/1 until 5100 then dives to about 12.8/1. This sounds like I should be able to spray a 125 shot without pulling timing. The car makes 400NA rwhp. What do you think?
Looks Safe !!!
i normally run 25* timing.
13.4 A/F?! isn't that a bit lean for a nitrous application?Quote:

2* per 50hp is too much retard. maybe above 200, but you can go with stock timing table on a 150 shot.
If the stock timing table goes to 26 and I'm already at 23, why would I pull timing? Most people say stock timing is good for at least 100 shot, so, my measly 125 should be fine. Oh, yeah, I plan on being fat with the c16 or 110 in the standalone.Quote:

I'm pretty sure it was the earlier years (98-00) that had a higher timing table from the factory, something like 28 degrees???
Mrr23 would know for sure.
depending on where you are at in your timing table, you can be 27*-28*. most stock displacement LS1 motors typically are in the .52 - .60 cylinder airmass rows. here's screenshot of as stock 2002 high octane timing table. so, just make sure your timing is in the 22*-23* range there

I was hoping you would post up a timing table :thumbup:
you were one minute ahead of me.
It's funny you mentioned the air mass rows Mrr23. My 2002 SS runs in the .72 air mass row consistently at WOT, with stock cam and all. Which is where I got the 19 degrees from,,,I had to bump that entire section up.
Yet that 2000 I picked up in your neck of the woods with that Vinci cam, and now an LS6 intake and such,,,and it only runs in the .52 airmass area at WOT. Strange to me.
Ok now I'm all confused again. I had a friend plug in hptuners and I did WOT runs. while running, the computer read 22-23. I assumed that meant that my timing was at 22-23 at WOT which is where I'll be when spraying.Quote:

airflow restrictions will dictate how much cylinder airmass will be used. example, if the 2000 still has the LS1 intake, it will pull in less air than the 2002 with the LS6 intake.Quote:

Ya that's along the lines I was thinking. I recently installed an LS6 intake, and with that baby cam I would think the cylinder airmass would have at least matched or went even higher than my stock 2002.Quote:

could be. the 241s are supposed to flow more than the 853s. also camshaft LSA plays a role in cylinder airmass
