    OK, one more generic question. Let's say the timing needs to be advanced (in any engine tuning scenario, not just this one).....

    How do you decided WHICH aspect of timing to change? How do you know when to change the centrifugal weights, vs vacuum advance (adjustable) vs. static? I understand what each does, I am having a hard time determining which would need changing under different scenarios.

    Are the dist weights in the correct orientation in the pic below (not upside down center part)? Not my pic, borrowed.
