I've advanced timing as much as I can without excessive ping. It'll take a bit more tuning to have it running perfect, but that'll come in time. The distributor may need further tweaking to optimize tune.

Apologies!! I can't believe I've never seen your thread!!
Good stuff here!!
And, again, thanks for the help you've provided me.. especially with the BOSS air bags!!
Still like my air bags... wish I could've gone with BOSS bags but they wouldn't fit due to my rear discs.
@bikersmurf - I must have misread in your other post - were you running an SP2P on your 300ish HP engine? I'm tossing around the 290hp/350tq Gen 1 crate sold everywhere (as opposed to the 190hp/300tq) but was a little worried the SP2P and 2" rams horns wouldn't breathe well enough to take advantage...
The 72 is a 4 bolt... in the process of scrapping off 40 years of crud. I'd take a picture of the mountain of 'dirt' but what'd be the point. I'm glad it didn't burn... shocked that I've even had to chisel clay off the ram horns... the manifolds on the old 350 burned everything off including VHT paint.
On the matter of crate motors... it is my understanding that the distributor gear on your points distributor is NOT COMPATIBLE with the cam that comes in the crate motor. I don't know a lot about it... just one will eat the other.
Pics please
