How do I go about setting the total ignition advance? The hormonic balancer can't read that high so how do I estimate it? I wan't to set it back at 38 degrees with base at 12. Can anyone help me out on the steps for accomplishing this. I know how to set the base timing but how do I know when the total timing is at 38 without reving the engine?
