Once I figured out that more stroke equates to more compression during the same 38-39 degrees of rotation, the problem was solved. Now I only run 34 degrees total and when I hit nos, I drop another 4 degrees for every one hundred hp.

Sooooo, if you were running 25 plus boost, that has got to equate to some 3-500 hp which means the timing should have been compensated for by up to 20 degrees less.

What timing and what fuel were you using?
This could be very possible.
I would really like to see a twin turbo 350 that has 25+ lbs. of boost.
