nawlens: I've been timing these little offsets by ear close to 50 years now. If you listen closely they will tell you when it's exactly right. Everywhere I go, folks remark about how well my tractor sound, how well they start and how well they pull. I don't even know where the timing marks are on my tractors. I just make sure they are TDC compression, put the distributor in with rotor pointing to no. 1 on cap. I expect you can achive the same with that elec ign.

You probably wont get it exactly right the first time, but you probably wouldn't with the timing light either. I guess it depends on which sence is the sharpest hearing or sight.
