Thanks Bruce, I"ll recheck your tuning writeups and that timing 
table......AIR that writeup was about a car not so different from my 
own.  I sure wish I could get hardcopy/graphs/tables of the edelbrock ones 
put into this chip.....I have done some reading from passenger side with my 
wife driving and obviously somewhat while I was driving but it's not good 
enough.....

I'll get back after I've done my homework....edebrock just asks me how much 
I want to alter from 'zero' but doesn' tell me what the actual settings are 
so unless I see /interpret the display at the right time I don't know from 
which point exactly (ie. 20 degrees or 30 degrees) I'm going up or down......
