I think Jaeme is trying to squeeze every last oz of power out of the engine.
Set them to 28 degrees for stock exhaust and cans. Engine will run cooler and definitely smoother.
Advanced timing will make the engine run rougher at the low end.

28 degrees ( stock timing ) is ok for stock exhaust or cans.
Anything more than 28 degrees make NO noticeable increase in power. Just an increase in heat. And the chance of kicking back.

brad would know where to set the timing for pipes. Most of the eme 60's that have come through here lately are set at about 31 or 32 deg timing from factory.

Thanks for everyones feedback.

By the way the EME 60 is a rocket.....very happy with the purchase.

My finger is fine now but it was a good strike. I will follow those instructions tonight. I purchased my engine in March so hopefully the adjustment screws are in the right place.

Re: Eme 60

set it at 28 deg for that engine with pipe and you should be good. about 30 or 31 deg without pipe.
some of the eme 60's were released with the screws in the wrong place and you could not retard the timing enough without a universal hall sensor holder.
hope this helps

Just so I am on the same page to retard the timing the hall sensor should be pushed to the far left when facing the motor installed on the plane or far left counter clockwise?

Should I use blue locktite when fastening the screws?
