My strategy is to set the total using a Sears lite and let the initial timing fall in automatically.  You can dial any total on the lite and just wait for the timing mark to go to zero, and you are done.  If it won't go to zero @ 3500 rpm then the adjustment is not right. My dist is centrfical only.
 
Thats the way I do it.

Larry,
this may seem like a dumb question but,
How did you figure out how much timiing to set your dist. at?
I have never know exactly where to start.
By the way I have a old unilite (mallory) and I have the plastic key somewhere if that is what your talking about for measurements.
I'll look to see if I can find it.
thanks.
Dan

I have an early 90s Unilite distributor, and am looking someone who has the timing curve calibration tools.  If you do, can you measure the thickness of the tools and post them on the list.  I purchased a kit #29014 but it is for the later model.  I think the proper kit is #29015.  It seems that when I got the distribtor the kit was in the box.
 
My target total advance is 36 Deg w/ 10-12 initial.
 
If anyone needs the #29014, I would be happy to make a great deal.
