Timing on a 350 Chev V-8..... assuming your damper is reading correctly..... vacuum hose removed and plugged.

Starting off point is 6-8 degrees. If you put in an aftermarket cam, 10-12.

If the engine bucks the starter, your over advanced. Chevys move ahead almost effortlessly when you get it just right.
