Setting Sbc Timing With Vacuum Gauge. Initial timing, mechanical advance, and vacuum advance. The higher vacuum reading should put you in a. Together, they form the overall spark curve the engine uses over its entire rpm and load range for optimal performance. We set timing by cranking it up until spark knock occurs, then backing off until tolerable.  — use vacuum gauge to set up idle screws on the carburetor, not timing.  — when setting timing this way, just unplug the vacuum advance and set to 36 degrees timing at above the rpm where your centrifugal advance.  — time it with a vacuum gauge, run it up to roughly 2500 rpm and turn your distributor until you reach your highest vacuum reading then lock it down. Set the timing with the vacuum advance hooked up so you can do vacuum and mechanical advances at the same time.  — keep your vacuum gauge for adjusting idle mix.  — we’ll look at three critical ignition timing areas:  — to set initial timing with a gauge, you merely unplug the ported vacuum advance, plug the vacuum source and find. Most often plugging in the vacuum.
