you need the timing cover. the logger always assumes a base of 5.. i ended up having to retard my base timing to 3 to get rid of pump gas knock, running 660s @ 45PSI base fuel pressure... if you don't have the timing cover you can mark the CAS and just give it a little tap in the retard direction and keep doing so till it makes a difference (even the slightest movement is nearly 1 degree), the only problem is you don't know exactly where you are in terms of base.. timing light and the cover is teh only real way to do it i know of.. hope that helps
