What timing are you running at WOT

I was wondering what timing you guys are running at WOT. I have a solid roller 396 with 248/254 duration , 6.xx ish lift camshaft. I know every motor is different but shot me your numbers anyways. Thanks

Mine is set to 25 degrees base and 36 full timing.

The trick is to get as much advance curve as possible without
detonation/ping.

My timing is fully advanced at around 3000 RPM. I used a
spring weight kit to adjust the timing curve. An improvement
can really be felt from the stock setting.

The optimal full advance timing can be found by playing on
the dyno, or getting your best MPH speed in the 1/4 mile.

My specs can be found at the links in my sig. Too many options
to list here.
