total timing for 78 merc 260

[skinny1965]

ok so I set the timing up in my boat as per the manual (I think 5 degrees) but back when I use to drag race we use to set up at max curve was something like 28 total degrees at 3800
so would like to know what the merc 260 should be at max curve so looking for degrees and rpm

Should be 8DBTDC base and 20 degrees total advance by 2800 rpm if I remember the advance curve
