Ken, re ignition timing, in the absence of timing dynamically with a timing light, you can improve a little on the method you used (visual observation of points opening) by clipping a 6-volt bulb between the moveable point and ground and turning the ignition on. The bulb will indicate the exact moment of point opening. Hold the rotor against the direction of rotation just to prevent inadvertent motion as you rotate the distributor body back and forth.
