Need Opinions. Have nothing to compare to.

Ok,... Went and checked some things when I got home to answer some of the questions.

Engine vaccum at idle hovers between 12 and 13 (connected to manifold vacuum port). I connected to the ported vacuum and no vacuum at idle. Vacuum jumps when I blip the throttle.

Timing according to my light is 13 initial (vacuum disconnected), 33 with mechanical advance only (vacuum disconnected) at 2600rpm, 50 at 2600 with vacuum attached to manifold vacuum port.

Interestingly, timing at idle with manifold vacuum connected is 17, meaning it is not giving full vacuum advance at idle like I thought it would.

Timing with vacuum connected to ported vacuum, at idle is 13, which makes sense considering no vacuum at idle from ported connection. Timing at a steady 2600 with vacuum connected to ported vacuum is 37.
