Dave Butler wrote: (assuming the timing is wrong): the danger is (1) reduced power output? (2) detonation? (3) inability to test magnetos at runup. Is that the kernel of it? Reduced power, increased EGT, and increased risk of burning exhaust valves. Inability to test mags comes way last. Risk of detonation is actually decreased (probably eliminated). By the way -- if my IA gave me the reply that he "would expect very minimal RPM drop" after timing them, I would take it elsewhere to get the timing checked.
