Correct ... he has some different ideas on timing , but seems to be able to back them up with solid reasons . What was interesting to me was how he set timing by the ground strap on the plug ... i.e , correct timing when the "mark " was in the middle of the curve . I played around some and found that if I advanced or retarded the timing , that " mark " moved in the direction he said it would . His booklet is worth every penny ... very good source .
He is also one of the few people that actually has a distributor machine ... and when I get around to it , the distributor , coil and wires off my 427 Galaxie will go to him so he can set it up .
I may be in Oregon next summer and plan to stop in if I`m close .
