jeffdgale Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Hi does anyone know the timing for the 400ci on a 74 Avanti II. Please let me know what the RPM should be when setting. I have a shop manual on the way but it hasn't arrived yet. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamderosa Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 Jeff- The tune-up settings for a '72 400" engine are: timing at 6 deg BTDC (set with vacuum advance disconnected) at 600 rpm (auto trans) or 900 rpm (manual trans) . If you're still using points they should be set with a .016" gap and 29-31 deg. dwell. The specs for your '74 may be slightly different, but this should get you into the ballpark until your shop manual arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
