While reading the gbody website on the set I found this:
Some people will refer to the Billet timing sets as being 4 degrees inaccurate. However, it is the stock timing set that is technically inaccurate, stock timing sets had 4 degrees of advance built into them. TA Performance was deeply involved in the development of the Billet, 9 Key Timing Sets. During the development of these sets it was determined to make them true “straight up” keeping with industry standards and giving the most flexibility for degreeing camshafts. So all but the TA Billet 9 Key sets will have 4 degrees built into them.
Does anyone know if that is correct? We are in the process of installing one of these sets and would like to advance it 2* from the stock setting so are we correct to set it on the 6* spot? I didn't see any instructions in the box. We don't have a degree wheel to see for sure. The cam is a Comp Cam 212/212 flat tappet. Are Comp Cams ground straight up or do they have advance already ground into them? If the cam is ground advanced say 2* then we set the gear to the 0* dot? Thanks for any help.
