that's a retard on your distributor, so don't worry about it. set timing to 35 degrees total advance with an adjustable advance timing light, them whatever it idles at, is what it idles at.(degreewise.) the F26 doesn't have as good a transition as the F3. but it's not as bad on a stock engine as it is on one with cams. pack a rag in each port as you pull the studs out. big visegrips, double nuts, or that nice snapon puller get them out. you're not going to use them again, so kill the threads if you have to.
