timing at 30 BTDC?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Well, I set mine to the Mopar specs.

I had it set at @12 BTDC. When I rev to 2000rpm (no Vacuum adv) it was only about 28 BTDC. I then reset the timming to @34 BTDC as per spec. Base
Timming is now well over the 12 degrees.

I then checked the vacuum advance including the mech at 2600 rpm. My new total (with the mech set for @34) was @53 all in at 2600. I then adjust the vacuum advance back down to @50 as per spec all in.

THe engine does idle better and I just did a short burst and seems to have more power.
Will keep you posted.
