I have a 77 truck that is basicly stock and i had a leak behind the intake maifold so i had to take everything off the manifold. When I went to set the timing I started at 8 btc then when more, but now i am about and inch from the timing tab and it is not pinging i want to go more but im hitting the manifold. Which way would I reseat the rotor to get more advance counter clockwise or clockwise.
This is a HEI dist.
Thanks Eagle
