Hey elwood,
IMO, how can you go wrong by following Jims' input/instruction ? He may use different words than some to inform, but IMO he is right on ! And, how many thousands of units of all kinds (4/6/8s/antiques/classics) has he done for us and we love them all
. I've always done as he says he has done timing.
BTW...doesn't the 'condition' of the engine (worn out vs new) account for a little variance in the timing process also ? A timing light will help in either case AND will tell you how worn things are ...if old engine.
