Timing light troubles.

I dont wear hats...

So with the new marks on the ballancer and the engine @ 2500 RPM I should see one one the new marks aligning with the zero mark on the cover?
The new mark being my total advance?
Is it that easy?

On my 318 I normaly run @12 BTDC and unknow total advance.
Anyone care to chime in with their baseline numbers?

Thanks again.
