GOOD NEWS. . . . The PICTURE UPLOAD FUNCTION IS WORKING !!! The tech folks at the parent company have been able to remedy the issue. You can upload pictures once again. Thank you for your patience.
I have a 1971 Chris Craft Lancer with a V6 Chris Craft 225BVC engine and I need to know what to set the timing to. I have found out it is a buick 225 marine engine but can't locate timing specs.The hoarspower is 155-170 depending on where you look.
Clip, DW was on the money (5 degrees BTDC). My book shows the dwell @ 30 drgrees and the point gap @ .016. I have the same engine in my boat (19ft Hydroswift) that you have. I have converted my ign. over to electronic. It works quite well with easier starts and smoother idle. The conversion was from Pertronix and was around $100.00. If you do this modification be sure to go with the Pertronix II. ...Good luck with your Buick....Pappy<br /><br /> http://www.geocities.com/ratsult2/boatpic.html
