OK, Got it all set up and running well. My base timing is 21, the total, 36. Got the Holley set up as Patrick suggested, with the idle set by the secondary adjustment. Because of the geometry of the Holley and its underlying Edlebrock intake i had to use a hex-head machine screw, not an Allen head, but it's easy to adjust with a 5/16 wrench. But, and there's always a "but", right? It still leaks from the intake. Gonna get some adult supervision to install next. arrgghh. s
