The best info yet! Do I do all this at my idle rpm (750 rpm )?

Very nice! Thank you for the vid. In regards to the 3 yellow lines, you said it takes you out to 40. If I mark mine like that is that how I can set it at 36 degrees to line up with 0 on the block? Did I word that right? Hope you understand what I'm asking.

Please, take your time. I'll keep an eye out for it.

That would be GREAT! Would that be a youtube thing or would you post it here

Here is another pic that I just took showing the line on the balancer that is filled with soap stone. Also, I did not notice til blowing up this pic that there are other smaller deg. marks on the balancer. My eyes are not what they used to be.

Thanks! There is a long notch on the balancer. Just not in the pics.

In regards to the pics I posted, any ideas which line to match up with balancer at idle? Thanks

Thanks for all the replies! Here are some pics.

Make sense? Yes, thank you. So, say at 1000 rpm I should turn dizzy to 34 degrees above the zero mark? I do not want to sound stupid, But I AM! I have a new Innova 5568 timing light coming Monday if I can figure out how to use it.

Watching the advance. Explain please.

Thank you for the info. It has a new HEI dizzy. So I'm looking to be around the third line on top of the zero at idle?

My problem is the timing for a stock 1976 360 with 4 barrel. Is btdc above the zero line or below? How many degrees does each notch mean? All answers will help. Thank You

I'm looking for a trunk lid for a 1963 or 64 2-door hard top Dart. I'm in North Carolina. [Email addys not allowed by non gold members] Thanks
