Thanks for the help. I am getting it but confused on the vacuum advance but for now running s stock setup so I deal with that later. Would it be a better idea to rev the rpms up to 3500 and set the total timing to 32-34 degrees and forget about initial? How would I keep the 32-34 total and lower initial if needed. And do this I set the timing light to 32-34 degrees and set the balancer degree tab to 0? I apologize for the basic questions but I have read so much I am kinda confusing myself,lol. I have read 10 different ways of reading the timing and curve with different lights and different ways of going about it.
