True....timing by ear works for me. Using a timing light assumes that all components are at factory spec...no worn timing chain, slipped balancer, low octane fuel etc.. Using a vacuum gauge works well too, as it sets max vacuum for that particular engine at that point in time.

Hope you didn't polish it too much looking. I had a difficult time finding markings, they're not very deep, like I was used to, and the numbers were poorly punched but there were degree lines. If I recall, from 0 to 10. The 0,5,10 lines were a bit heavier and maybe what you see. I fine wire brushed the grooves and wiped with white paint to make them prominent.
It timed right up with the inductive light, I just ran light off a 12v source.
