Dang, I think i'm getting it now. Well, at least i'm not going to yank the stinking cap off again for a while.

Now, I got my crank timing set at 12 degrees BTDC with the vaccum advance unplugged. The weakest springs I got will start the centrifigual advance a 900 rpm and advance 20 degrees to 8000 rpm.

I'm using one of those.

The next spring starts at 1600 rpm and advances 15 degrees total at 6000 rpm.

I'm supposing my real advance is somewhere in between then.

I donnou if I even see 6000 much less 8000 rpm.

So, ballpark advance on the weights would be 16 degrees starting at 1100 rpm? With the springs I got right now?

Sooo, mine would be 12+16+15= 43 degrees? Am I right?
