Re: timing gears

Now that you have done that, try and get your hands on a degree wheel. A good degree set will have a dial indicator. You can indicate off the rocker or the top of the valve and get your high point for top dead center. That will get you dialed in pretty good. Then make sure the engine is at TDC and install the distributor. Use a timing light and you should be able to get that thing running great in no time. I prefer the timing lights that have the advance dial on them.
