The Allstar Performance Timing Pointer provides engine builders with a precise reference point for setting ignition timing on small block Chevrolet engines equipped with 7-1/4 inch outside diameter harmonic balancers. This adjustable pointer mounts directly to the timing cover and delivers the accuracy required for dialing in cam timing and optimizing ignition advance curves. Whether you are building a street performance 350 or a dedicated circle track motor, this pointer serves as an essential tool during initial engine assembly and subsequent tuning sessions.
Constructed from lightweight aluminum with a black anodized finish, this timing pointer resists corrosion and maintains visibility against the engine block. The adjustable design allows precise positioning to align with your specific timing marks, accommodating variations between different balancer manufacturers and timing tape configurations. Stainless steel mounting hardware ensures secure attachment and long-term durability in high-vibration environments. The pointer measures 4 inches in length, providing adequate reach from the timing cover to the balancer face without interference from accessory drives or belts and pulleys. This combination of durable materials and adjustable functionality makes setup straightforward for both experienced engine builders and first-time assemblers.
Use this timing pointer during engine break-in procedures, carburetor tuning sessions, and distributor timing adjustments. The adjustable feature proves particularly valuable when working with aftermarket balancers that may have timing marks in slightly different locations than OEM units. Pair this pointer with a quality timing tape for degree-accurate readings throughout the timing range.
