Bruce,

I like your approach to the problem. Approximately, how many clicks up from full advance did you place the stop on your car? From Bob’s diagram I would assume it would be 4 to 5 clicks up for a 6.0 compression head.

The underside of the device is flush against the bottom and the top is filed to give the 28 degrees using the Nurex timing strip as mentioned in my post. I never looked to see how many clicks.
