Default Ignition Advance


This is on a thunderheart ignition. I just want to double check that I'm reading this correctly.

The setting on this graph "0 and 8" is the least advanced, correct?

Thanks guys.

NICE, same setup on my 07. I'm running an AMS (Cleburne, TX) 105 top end, SE-255 and V&H Big shots. Got maybe 75,000 on the Thunder Heart. What curve are ya running.

Yep, been there. I found the TC responds very well with more timing. I'm running on C with NO detonation. Pretty good with 10.5:1 pistons.
