Keep in mind...

...that crankshaft degrees are not the same as distributor degrees.

When dealing with a timing light being shone on a damper, you are looking at crankshaft degrees.

Distributor or "curve" degrees are based on the rotation of the distributor. Since one rotation of the distributor equals two rotations of the crankshaft, it's important to differentiate between the two.

To be sure, I could never figure out how to get the numbers to make mathematical sense until I had this epiphany about a year ago.
