Timing tape will not stay on -- they shouldn't even sell it as any sort of permanent fix. Remember, you only need one single mark, and that is your total timing as it is relative to your existing pointer position. It really doesn't even matter if your timing pointer is, say, 7 or 8 degrees off of "true." All you need to do is calculate what your total timing should be, rotate your engine to that point, and then mark a line at that position so it lines up with your existing pointer position. You then time your engine to that point at an RPM where all of your advance is in. If you do it this way, you will never have to do it again. Ever. For the life of the car. Never, never, again. Done. Finis.
