Just looking for spec for my 64
What is Points gap supposed to be
Dewell angle

Thanks

Hi Joe,

     The dwell angle is usually set from 28 to 30 degrees.  Pretty sure that is equivalent to .016 with a flat gauge by hand.  Just make sure your dwell gauge is still accurate - mine was not.  If the points and condenser are not one piece, you can get the flat gauge in there with the points on the HIGH spot of the cam.

You're welcome, Joe.  Use the flat gauge to be sure (.016) it is accurate.  I picked up a used Dwell meter on Ebay and had it checked with my friend's to be sure.  Talk soon.
