The timing for a 383 stroker engine typically should be set between 12 to 16 degrees of initial timing at idle, with total timing (including mechanical advance) reaching around 32 to 36 degrees at higher RPMs. However, the optimal timing can vary based on factors such as the specific camshaft, fuel type, and engine setup. It's crucial to use a timing light for accurate adjustments and to consult the engine builder's specifications for the best results. Always ensure the engine runs smoothly without knocking or pinging, which can indicate timing issues.

How do you set timing on 1967 Chrysler 383 big block?
To set the timing on a 1967 Chrysler 383 big block, first ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for the number one cylinder. Next, use a timing light to check the current timing mark against the timing tab, which should be set around 5 to 7 degrees before top dead center (BTDC) for optimal performance. If adjustments are needed, loosen the distributor hold-down bolt and rotate the distributor slightly until the desired timing is achieved. Finally, tighten the distributor bolt and recheck the timing to ensure it remains accurate.
