How much timing are you running?
I was just curious what other people doing with their timing?
I am jetted for a 200 shot on a plate with a 12.25:1 383 ls1. I'm in Florida and running 93 octane. I have NGK B8EFS plugs and run 23 degrees timing. My plugs look perfect. I'm gonna try 24 degrees next time out.
I have a friend that was spraying 200 through a nozzle on a cam and bolt on lq9, in a truck on 93 with ngk 7's on 25 degrees with no problems for over 6 months.
Another friend was spraying 300 through a nozzle on a cam and bolt on ls1 in a camaro on 93 with ngk 6's at 21 degrees for 2 years with no problems before he wrecked the car.

damn a 300 shot is insane. I would love to sit in a car that sprays that much just to see how it feels when it kicks in, lol. At a 125 wet shot it puts a smile on my face everytime, now im at a 150 shot.

I have been seeing lately that the general answer when someone asks if said person has pulled and checked the plugs to be "they look perfect".
I wonder if those that said this know how hard it is to get a plug to look perfect. It sure as hell don't happen after one or two passes at the jetting the jetting card says.
I would have someone that has been around nitrous for a long time read your plugs to make sure you are ok before adding any timing especially on pump gas.

Sorry in advance for the thread hijack, but I have a similar timing questions, only on an LT1. Bryan Herter did my dyno tune last year and I'm running 38* of timing NA. I just built a new forged shortblock for nitrous and I'm bumping the compression to about 11.5-1 (and of course a new tune). I know LSX engines don't need as much timing advance to make the power, but will I be safe backing my timing down in the recommended 2 degree increments for each 50 shot up to 150 with my timing already so high?

The motor wants what the motor wants and LT1's are very close to what a sbc would like n/a wise.

I've been using nitrous for about 5 years and have a few friends with promods and other very fast nitrous cars. I do have some experience. I'm running -6 lines with NX Lightning solenoids (500hp capable) on my direct port, with a stand alone fuel system with c16 in it. I spray my 200 through a Nitrous Outlet plate with Harris solenoids (500hp capable). I forget what size fuel jet I ended up running (I think 2-3 sizes smaller than the card) and whatever they put on the card for a 200 shot.
I think you guys took me to seriously on the perfect plugs thing. I just meant no signs of detonation.
Nice to see what some other people are doing though.
