so i just got back got my timimng set , the shop said it was 4 degrees off so we shall see how she does now, the engine was cold cold cold when i did all of the work on it including the valve adjustment and i put a 1/4 inch entention in the cylinders to make sure it was at TDC. i went by the instructions on some website, im about 99% sure the valves vere adjusted precisely. i dont know if 4 degrees is a lot to be off but the car sure does sound a little bit different at hing rpms, i cant really get on it cuz its pouring out right now but seems good.
