I don't know, but lately I've been reading (in published performance magazines) that the later 460's were retarded 8 degrees, not 4! Who can confirm this?

I heard that too, and I know that some of the small blocks were, but my '86 460 was retarded 4 degrees. I checked it.
I learned a ton that I am going to post in a minute.
Thanks for all the help and feedback.
