Title: S&S 475 Cam Injector Timing

Can someone please tell me the best injector timing for a M8 114, Thundermax tuner, S&S 475 cam?

5.5's from the dealer.  Proper angles and spray pattern.

Thanks for the reply hrdtail78, but I was wondering in degrees on basic settings on the Thundermax.

Gotcha, well IME with calcs I have played with.  They really only get you in ball park.  To find the best timing.  I get close with calcs or what Tmax suggests.  Then I tune idle for target.  Turn off any closed loop and change this timing 5 at a time.  If AFR goes richer for same injector opening.  Means you have moved the timing to a more efficient angle.  Keep adding or taking away until the point of diminished returns.
