If the distributor is static timed at 10BTDC on the balancer, it should show up as 10BTDC on a timing light.

Ignition timing is always quoted in crankshaft degrees. Distributor degrees is half, but irrelevant.

What timing light are you using?

What camshaft is in the engine?

By the sound of it, you have 16 degrees of mechanical advance, what distributor is this?
