Stock, around 28, but stock, you should be using initial. High performance, as much as possible. If you put a curve kit in, and an adjustable vaccuum advance, you should be able to get 32, to 34, on pump gas, depending on your altitude, compression ratio, and outside temp. To get an accurate total, you really have to install timing tape on the balancer. Just keep advancing until it pings. That is called power timing it. No light required, with enough experience.

How many litres of water does a Small block 350 Chevy hold?

A small block 350 Chevy engine typically holds about 4.5 to 5.5 quarts of oil, depending on the specific configuration and whether a filter change is included. When considering the cooling system, it generally requires around 12 to 16 quarts (approximately 11 to 15 liters) of coolant, which includes the radiator and the engine. Therefore, if you're asking about the total water capacity for the cooling system, it would be in that range.

What is the ignition timing for a gen v BBC?

The ignition timing for a Generation V Big Block Chevy (BBC) typically ranges between 32 to 38 degrees of total timing at full throttle, depending on the specific engine build and fuel used. It's essential to check the manufacturer’s specifications and consider factors such as compression ratio and camshaft profile for optimal performance. For best results, tuning on a dynamometer can help fine-tune the timing for specific applications. Always ensure to start with a conservative setting and adjust based on engine feedback.


Where are the freeze plugs on a 350 v8?

Actually the term freeze plug is a misnomer. They are casting plugs, and have nothing to do with protecting the engine from freezing. They are located on the side of the block just below where the heads contact the block. Some 400 small blocks have three per side and on some engines there are two in the front.l NEW ANSWER: He is right about the casting plugs and 3 and sometimes just 2 on the sides of the 400 SB engines. But all Chevy V-8 and V-6 engines have 8 total. on each side under the heads where they bolt to the block and 2 in the front 1 on each side of the timing cover and 2 in the rear of the engine block were the transmission bolts up to. That makes 8

What is the difference between a 1999 Chev 3500 5.7 liter and a 2003 Chevrolet 2500 6 liter engine?

The 6.0 is a GEN.II engine and that is when GM. redesigned the Chevy engines and Transmissions. The bell housing bolt pattern is total different. The entire engine block has been changed inside and out. Motor mounts are in a different place, EVERYTHING about it is different. 1999 is when Chevy redesigned everything. From 1999 down, the good old small and big block Chevy engines would fit anything, and could be modified with less money. Nothing from 1999 down and 1999 up will interchange with each other.
