Do I need a different setting with the dual carbs?"

I have a 77 MGB with dual HiF6's, and I had to
advance the timing real far to get rid of a nasty
bog below 3000rpm. As a guess it is at about 30
degrees btdc. I started at 10 degrees btdc
and advanced it till it pinged. It goes like
a rocket now.

 All I need know is some high compression
pistons to really take advantage of the
better induction.
