There are curves and the guy provided the curve info - just dont know anyone that would be able to interpret it for me to know if any changes need to be made or if it is appropriate for the set up I have. Thanks again for the response.
Sure, happy to provide what I have. I'm away until later this week, but I'll post it on this thread after I get home in case others run across this post looking for info. and find it useful.

As to timing, I think I may have made a small adjustment after I got the car, but mostly have left it alone. I did verify the actual timing the old fashioned way with a timing light, and it seemed to be right where it was supposed to be.

One thing I recalled after I posted earlier is that I guess they must have pre-set certain characteristics of the timing curve at the factory, because I believe my manual has some hand-written markings for either the timing intervals or RPM limit. Maybe they set them according to application and/or customer preference.
