So yes I have searched and read several threads about this and I have a mechanical background. Clean, (just splashed), bottom, props are perfect.
I have twin 454's in a 35 downeast style express. I have been chasing a problem of not being able to get the starboard engine to come up as high, (rpms/speed) as the port. So, we checked the timing today.
Idle-700 rpm
Port-21 BTDC
Star-was 18, bumped to match port, 20 BTDC
2500 rpm
Port- 35
Star- 35
Does this seem high? These engines start/run awesome.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
