Dual carb set ups - ?

[NoHachi]

Huh flaming? Its just a fact...most power can be gained by tweeking the timing. If you want to know how big a difference the timing controlls can make, do a search of the more oldscool toyota forums (kp61, 3tc) tons of people that have done this before and every one of them was amazed with the difference..prolly some threads on club4AG too.

Eightsix: the timing map sometimes becomes constant or smooth at high rpm, with a fixed max.advance..however big cammed engines can have very irregular VE maps with large fluctuations between 4000 and 8000rpm..you need to adjust your timing too them...maybe just ask Ben what he does for timing and what difference he expects..he probably knows from experience.

And your carbs are individual throttles. 1 throttle/cylinder

160hp on poorly adjusted timing sounds like 300deg cams and 1200rpm idle. Would be very very difficult to make that kind of power with the stock rev.limit. Get it on a rolling road some time and before that post some vids...carbies sound great.
