Lawrie, Mine is a set like you won't see very often. That shouldn't surprise you.
I made an adjustable stop that I screwed to the side of an original A distributor. It has a screw on it like a throttle stop that stops the top plate with no variation. I didn't like the idea of putting a clamp on the steering column quadrant and have all those mushy connections in between there and the dizzy.. Using the Nurex timing scale and with the engine at a fast idle, I set the stop at 22°. Initial timing was by the usual method and checked with the lever all the way up, it read zero degrees.
Around town, I set it at about half way and once on the open road, I pull the lever down and let the stop take care of everything else. Glenda was driving a while ago on the long, flat open stretches of road near Deniliquin. I saw triple figures on the GPS and it was just starting to "sing". I'm not going to meddle with 22°.
