Thanks again Däs Schmoo. Actually, the reason why I'm trying to adjust my ignition timing is because when i swapped out my headgasket for a thicker one (.54 cometic), I notice that my timing was advance quite a bit and had a hard time getting back to 16. So after doing some research, I changed my cam gears to -2 -2. I can set it to 16 easily now but I just want to make sure the theory of 0.012 on a thicker gasket adds 1 degree advance cam timing. Not trying to advance it for power gains.
I'll have the tuner tune ignition whenever I get a chance to get the car dyno again.

So basically I guess I'm trying to find 0,0 since 0,0 on the cam gears doesn't seem to be accurate anymore with the thicker headgasket. I think -2 -2 on the cam gear is really 0,0 now. Guess this is were a degree wheel would come in handy. Man, getting too old to be playing around with this stuff

Thanks again!
