Hello everyone!

With the goal of having the subsystems of the 1275 work in harmony, I will
be adjusting the carburetors, setting the timing, setting the vacuum
advance, (etc.?)

Manuals usually say "have everything else done before adjusting ______"
When starting from scratch, what is the correct procedure?

My guess:

Manually set dwell,
disconnect vac-advance, 
warm engine
rev to ______ RPMs
adjust timing to _____ BTDC(?)
perform Roger Garnett's carb tuning procedure.

Is this about right?  Did I miss anything?  What are the numbers?

Thanks!
