    Timing/compression Help

    So I’ve had lots of trouble getting my car to start after being rebuilt. The best I’ve managed to get my compression is C1 - 168psi C2 -150psi C3 - 150psi C4 - 100psi. I had to play around with the timing to get it to that. I also have adjustable Greddy Cams, so I’m guessing I’m gunna need to adjust them to get cylinder 1 lower and cylinder 4 higher. Should I be advancing or retarding the timing to get them all closer to 150psi?

    Set them to 0 and try it, you can’t just move the timing around to balance out your compression results. To set your cam gears properly you need a few dial gauges and a degree wheel.
