OK, I should know better than to bring up something like this with you and Rich to give me greif! :-) I DO have a Sears and Roebuck timeing light. This would be used to quickly and easily adjust timing and note results, not dependable to set permanet timeing . I thought it would be handy and look cool on my nostalgia engine. You know, whats old is new these days , build those thingys and make your fortune. That is if there are none available . Anyone have this stashed away ? ...........................MO

I am stressed again, head spinning. Mo if you need a timing light I will send you one..if you don't need one.. try Richs duct tape idea. Timing lite is kinda a 2010 thingee.Ollie----- Original Message ----- From: "Rich Kinsley" <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>To: <1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, March 19, 2010 4:46 PM Subject: RE: timeing distributor tool thingyOK, OK, here we go again. How about some duct tape with markings around the dist with a homemade pointer off the hold-down screw or ??? You can use tape you removed around your head:-) Rich Kinsley '64 Dodge Polara 4dr 318poly w/goodies ==================================================================== Steve Mick wrote:Years ago there was available, a plate attached to a larger hose clamp . The plate had degrees marked on it , before and after a center 0 mark. You attached this device to your dist cap with the hose clamp near the base of the cap. Then there was a pointer that you mounted somewhere stationary. Set your timeing to zero and alighn the pointer to Zero on the attached plate. The ideah was to be able to adjust your timeing approximatly , without using a timeing light. I'm thinking that would be a quick-easy way to set your timeing at different places till you get the prformance you want , and then you can see with a timeing light just what actual timing is. Does anyone remember those and where could I get one? A Summit search came up with nothing, but I am a bad searcher..................................MO {Steve Mick} http://www.1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/mick64.htmlRich Kinsley '64 Dodge Polara 4dr 318poly w/goodies ----Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
