Since Im doing the 351w change, I've been thinking of running the 302 with the T3's that I have with some nitrous. I was told that I should be careful with the timing. The engine is stock, I was just planning on setting a conservative timing with no advance, like most here do. I saw a product on Summits catalog, that is a timing retard for nitrous. Can I run the locked timing and use this timing retard box for the nitrous too?

 

run race gas.

 

cant afford it.. its a street racer..

C'mon, answer my q!

 

i wouldnt even attempt it on pump gas. id just run straight turbo. all nitrous is gonna do is lean out the a/f ratio even more.

 

it seems I didnt write the question well. sorry. let me refrase.

I've read that you should remove the timing advance spout when running turbos with pump gas, in order to fight detonation caused by timing advance.
I plan on running a wet nitrous kit.

My question is, could I retard timing when I use the nitrous (with the timing retard box i saw at summit) without having the timing advance spout?

 

You might get some detonation when you shift. The EEC likes to throw a lot of advance at a low RPM (right after a shift), high load (floored throttle) situation.
