Timing light is in the trailer. I'll go get it on Tuesday and double check it but it starts easy and idles great.
As far as reversion goes. This is a different cam (much bigger) than last year. I haven't paid attention to the manifold heat this year. Each time out I've been heating the engine, to allow heat soaking. I'm finally going to a track without eyes. So I want to know what I can pick up with a cold intake.
Took a leakdown to see if I had some bent intake valves It was 3 to 5 percent (not bad for gasported pistons).
This is the motor that I had asked about the compression pressure before It is 300 pounds. I worried myself sick about it. But have just learned to live with it as a quirk with the 4 valve setup.

Art, I do not think your timing is off and if you have a reversion problem, it not not create heat. You need an isolator made of thicker material such as phenolic, Black Nylon 66 or similar high temperature thermoplastic. I have not seen your intake location, however, is the intake above the exhaust?
