Trigger Offset Clarification

[Ghostin]

Hey Guys - So I've searched and run across other similar topics and am still a little unclear on how this should be done correctly so I could use some input, below are the steps I've taken

- Set fixed advanced to 10*
- Verify car with light, correct light until mark on pulley lines up with TDC pointer to get reading.
- TDC pointer and mark on pulley line up at 16* according to timing light.
- Set offset angle in trigger wizard to 16*
- Set Fixed advance back to Table, burn.

Has this been done correctly? Should my offset setting be 16 or 26*?

If this is completely incorrect please explain why and what I should do. It would be greatly appreciated. Again, I know this has been covered but is confusing for some reason.

Note - When values are changed in trigger wizard, they do not show up above in the black box. The values reman at zero. Is this normal? I am running beta currently.

Thanks as always

It would help if you told us more about your install, MS3 or MS3X, MS2, MS1 extra?

Sorry, thought this one was generic enough that it wouldn't matter much. My mistake.

Setup is a 5.3 turbo/ 4L80 on microV3.

It's an offset. Most likely 6 degrees will align the timing.

This is covered in the manual. http://www.msextra.com/doc/pdf/html/Meg ... .4-45.html

Thanks James. I just made this more complicated than it should have been.
