RE: setting timing

Make sure you drop the idle down to 500 rpm or as low as you can, this will take out the mechanical advance, now with the vacuum advance plugged off set you timing to 8*. You mention 18* with the vacuum advance hooked up, what is before you hook it up? you may have it pulling directly off the manifold and causing the timing to be way advanced hence the backfireing. The vac advance tube should be ported vac. off the carb and at idle vacuum is nill and wont effect the static adjustment.
This thread, so far...
