timing on a 75 390
does anyone know what the timing should be set at, i have a 75 f-100 4x4 with a 390, 4 barrell edlebrock carb and a comp cam. all of the books i have say look on the sticker under the hood. well i have two probolems, 1) sticker aint there, 2) the truck came with a 360.can anyone help? the truck is runnin like crap and backfireing and i think that might be the problem. it backfires so much that it stalls the engine out.another thing , does anybody have a vacume chart for the vacume lines? that sticker is missing also.
