When I sent my fast back to have it setup for an inductive pickup they told me setup #1 50 degrees before top dead on compression stroke. Then drop the distributor in so its pointing at #1. Is this how the rest of you set it up? Just looking at it the ignition looks like it would spark #1 with 50 degrees of timing As soon as the distributor passes #1 terminal on the rotor it sparks. So wouldnt that not be with 50 degrees of advance?
They also told me to make sure the timing in the program matches the balancer and it does but this 50 before top dead is a bit confusing? I would think it should be set at 0 then drop the distributor in?
