timing
383 automatic should be around 12 degrees btdc, the big blocks are from 10-14 btdc works on all, unless its has a hairy cam

timeing on 383
the sticker under the hood on my 70 says 5 degrees, but, it is a california rig.
they have a funny way of doing smog settings here.
hell, when you buy a timeing chain and gear in this state they come with a built in 3 degree retard on the cam. [retarded, just like our govenor].
good luck, john.
