Alpine dwell

I was working on tuning up my car for the smog check today and I have a
question. What should the dwell timing be on a Series V? The book gives
a point gap but dwell reading is much more precise.

Fixed my carb damper vents by using a small tapered wooden dowel (round
toothpick) to plug the factory vent. Also installed new heli-coils to
repair the threads for the air cleaners. I used my Color-Tune to adjust
the mixture and everthing seemed to go well. I'll pull the plus in a few
days to check the color but it seems to be running ok.

Any ideas on the dwell?
