Mr. F. Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate it.

So the 28-38 is adjustable by the "seat of the pants" tool I assume? Basically whatever the engine will take with out pinging between 28-38 degrees. I will have to play with the timing some. I have a dial back light, so should have no problems figuring out what is going on with it. Have to fix a brake line first to get it drivable to tweak in the carb too. Getting the beast road worth again...

Thanks again.
