Hi Don, 28-30 degrees is where we started with our BB Chev, its plenty safe but is enough to get the thing running OK. Cheers

 

I would expect 31-35 will be your max HP. I'm assuming its a big chamber like 119 cc's?

 

yes heads are 119cc's

 

BBC Timing to start

Don,
I ran a real close set up, we started off at 30 and worked are way up to 35 degrees, I would never go over 36. Just to be safe. I hope this helps!!!
