LD4B installation on a 75 318

Played around with the timing light and vacuum gauge and found out the stock distributor has 22 degrees of mechanical advance (all in by 3,000rpm) and 24 degrees of vacuum advance. When turning the distributor, vacuum kept increasing up to 25 degrees initial which I thought was way too high so I backed it down to 11 and then adjusted the idle speed which brought it down to 7 degrees BTDC. I'll take it for a test drive tomorrow when the weather is better to hear how it sounds. Total timing is now 53.
