I've read some place that a complete 360 turn on the distributor vacuum
advance thumbscrew (tr-3 motor) equals 8 degrees of either advance or retard,
whichever is needed.  If I've set up everything TDC compression stroke,
pointer on hole in pulley.................(thumbscrew set in middle of its
range................then I simply turn thumbscrew half a turn advance
direction and I'm all set for start-up?

Just checking to be sure.  Getting
ready for initial start up here.
