Almost ready to start my 19-year old fresh 2.0. It has carbs and a new 050 distributor (no vacuum diaphragm). Just realized I have no clue as to how to time it and at what rpm. I have it set at TDC with rotor pointed at index mark on distributor body. I am assuming this will allow me to light the fire. Then what? Red mark/3500 rpm with vacuum lines disconnected and plugged doesn't sound right any more!

There is a tech article @ PP. At 3200rpm 34-35 degrees. You don't need an adjustable timing light, there is a lug on the fan that you can go by. I have an 050 and this is what I use.
