Re advance numbers . . .
If you've got the original motor in it and you can find a code A stamped onto the distibutor body, advance is as follows:
0 at stop to 400 rpm 19 at 800 rpm 34 at 1200 rpm 40 at 1600 rpm Full tilt no-load rating for the motor is 1540, that pulls down to 1400 under load
If you've got a motor from a SuperC or a late Super A, (from the motor serial number) and you find a code J on the housing, the numbers in the same order and at the same speeds are 0,9,24,30. That may be where you're getting the 30 number from.
