Any reason you can't copy someone else's curve?

For instance, one of the curves from Advent (here's the link).

I have no personal experience, just curious.

Sure. Just gotta find the time. Fridays through Sundays work for me.

They give an okay description of each curve, but you can call them and ask what curve they would recommend given your modifications. An engine builder would do the same. Art programmed my Advent with a custom curve of his own.

I'm no pro at curves but you can take a look at the epic curve thread and copy one from there essentially, Set your red line @8000, Static timing at 28 then draw it back 5* I think is a safe initial set-up, You could go more aggressive but....

Make sure you port match your pipe, also open the pipe up a little bit, you'll get a bit more power

What are people opening there pipe up to?

 

[munki63]

45-47 if I remember correctly

 

[Matt_E]

49 - 52 mm if you can.

 

[burton391]

is there a thread on this?

 

[munki63]

Dunno, but when I talked to Chuck few years back he recommended I open in up to 47 I think, 50 for the bigger motors yes... Makes a difference

 

[burton391]

Still haven't had any time to try and figure a curve out but figured I would post a pic of my lightened flywheel.
