    No where near that.

    20-27ish degrees depending on mods and what the engine wants. Don't just flat line the timing at a single value either. Look at how the stock timing tables are, they vary in timing based on engine rpm and cylinder airmass.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.
