12.5:1, 24 degrees max advance under load.

Use the best gas you can find.

24* advance? all ive been reading is talking about retarding the ignition because stock supercharged motors require less timing, and thats why the vortech comes with the crane hi-6 to retard the timing????

im totally new to this whole deal. so if anyone can try to explain a little of this stuff to the tuning impared, id appreciate it.......thanks

Stock ignition tables at WOT are much more than 24degs. So 24 IS quite a bit retarded. If you are going to be doing this stuff yourself pick up a tuning program such as Tunercat or LT1Edit.
