I just fired up the GT6 after 8 long weeks of disassembly.  With a new (old)
cam (Crane F-254/325-8) the idle is of course much rougher and I started
jiggering the ignition timing.  Here are the questions:

The car has a Crane XR3000 optically triggered (off the distributor)
electronic ignition.  Should idle timing be any different than a stock car
with this cam and ignition, i.e., 13 degrees BTDC?

I referred to Kastner, only to find that the section on road testing the
ignition is missing page 144 in my book, starting with the second paragraph
of "The Testing".  Anyone have a scanner, copier or fax who can send me that
page? fax 215.233.1509

Any advice would be appreciated!
