A drop of distributor cam lube every 5k miles on the lobes will go a long way to keep those points in adjustment also.

[b]OK! Here ya go!

Point Gap: .025

Ignition Timing *4 degrees before top-dead-center

*Vacuum advance hose removed from distributor and plugged.

Note: Timing specs are just for reference. Depending on the octane of gasoline, engine operating temperature, and condition of engine, timing should be adjusted until Knock/pinging is eliminated.

Thanks all for the specs. This will go a long way to get the old milk truck up and rolling. For the curious… I am turning this old truck into a mobile party truck complete with spirits lists, stereo, and supplies for every caterer, business party, barbeque, and cruise-in. Thanks again.
