.083 N is around a 265hp shot. Definatly too much timing. Im gonna say start at around 10-13* total timing, log the run and go from there. With that much timing at 23* I bet you were hitting knock retard like no other.

Could have lean spiked too. One guy here runs Tr6 plugs, 26 deg timing on a 175 hit out of the hole and has no issues. Looking to bump to 200 and put timing at 21 deg. AFR is about 12.4 on the big end.
