Whoops! Scratch that vacuum advance theory!
Now you have to find out how much centrifugal advance your distributor has in it. You may have to change some springs on the weights and/or flyweight travel stop points so that you can run around 10 degrees BTC at idle and still get your 36 total around 3000-3500 rpm.
I have seen where a lot of out the box centrifugal distributors have only 15 to 20 degrees of advance in them. Then you are forced to run a high initial amount of timing so that the total would be where you wanted it.
Anybody here old enough to remember those old timey distributor test stands at the old skool auto electric shops?
