If I set the adjustable timing light to 27 degrees, remove and plug the vacuum lines and wind the engine above 3500, should the timing mark line up in the peep hole on the shroud? Am I on the right track?

Yes to both.
For your original question: If you set the timing light to 27 degrees, you would need to find the TDC mark, not the timing mark, in the notch in the timing hole. You can set the dial to 0, and look for the timing mark. --DD |
