    2012 3.0L TKS runs great with muffs, but slow on lake...

    Timing There is nothing wrong with the valves with pressure this high. Might have some liquid in the cylinders but everything is within "spec", so that's not the issue Everything I read says there is nothing wrong with the motor

    convert 2005 5.0 GXI to 2012 5.7 GIC

    Have not done this kind of swap but not to sure using an adapter 14 to 10 pin would be all that is needed. The motor uses a CAN bus and most likely will need the VP EVC display and cabling @muc As for the exhaust, if it will connect to Y pipe there should be no issue

    2012 3.0L TKS runs great with muffs, but slow on lake...

    Every test good, only thing left is to find out if the distributor is advancing Would need your motor serial number but being a 2012 timing should be set 2* ATDC This is how to do it and use 2* ATDC instead where it says 1* BTDC

    Maybe I should have said the cable on my Rams is used to engage/disengage the parking lock in tranny and F/N/R position. It uses switches to limit max up shift gear while driving

    Mercruiser Setting Timing on 3.0L

    Agree up/down not turn, does not matter if you can turn it then it may be in the right spot but may also be just past it, based on how hard your turning.
