I am not looking for trade secrets, but how about some thoughts on why this engine set-up can run timing abnormally higher than most in boost.

Most are saying this is at least 8 degrees more than usual and some even more than that. 8 degrees alone is allot of power to be had if it is indeed there.
Me.... I have a single T76, and on pump gas can run no more than 24 degrees with 11.5-11.8 A/F. I know that because mine is sitting on the engine stand now with burned pistons and some funny looking build-up on a combustion chamber.

I know you are not bashing Tom, just questioning the timing. If you doubt him, I am sure David Freiburger, who was present for all the dyno pulls would be a pretty good reference to ask.
