    Outstanding..!

    Member Fingers brought up an important point about setting [initial] ignition timing: "Disconnect the vacuum hose from the distributor. BOOM! You're in "timing mode".

    Not only remove but PLUG the distributor vacuum line end because a vacuum leak can cause the engine RPM to change and RPM must be set before setting timing... I suggest double check the whole RPM & timing process twice as a sanity check...
