He's an older post from a different site that might be helpful. It's been about 30 years since I've worked on a points distributor, but I always set the dwell on the short end of the range. That way as the rubbing block(s) wear down the dwell will increase toward the long end of tolerance.

28 and 32 total is correct, i raced using these years ago and they are pretty reliable and on the plus side they use chevy points so you dont have to buy the pricey accel point sets
