If you are using a newer ignition like DTT, I'd cut the wires at the sensor and pull the rest of the harness..
Those systems really look pretty nice... I'm using an older SE "Selectable Ignition," at least for now. While you can't completely alter the four pre-built maps, you can add/subtract degrees of total timing from each of them, and you can set max RPM anywhere you like. It was part of the original build years ago, and has served me well so far.
Yes... My pushrods are 24 tpi (I think they're SE "Quick Installs." There was an SE211 cam in this engine originally, later replaced with an Andrews TW60 so SE makes sense. They make two models, one is 32, one is 24). From what I understand, 24 TPI should require 2.4 turns, or 14.4 flats.
.125-.140" Preload Target...
The following chart is for .125" add up to 2 more flats (20 total) for .139"
follow that s&s vid even though we dont know what brand the one you have are. Did you already do the TPI calculations?

Thanks everyone, lots of great info! I noticed my "Four Flat Situation" when I first took it apart, but then promptly forgot... So thanks for pointing it out again! I'll mark a spot on each one to make it easier to keep track of how far I've turned them...
