Timing by ear is Old School, and yes I have a timng light now.
Way back when, no timing light.
A lot of times timing numbers mean nothing, wear, cams, dist adv.all change your specs.
We could have the exact same specs on the same engines and one will react differently.
So, it is not all the nutty to time by ear.

First thing to do is buy a timing tape for the balancer. Check initial timing and total timing.

Is this a Mopar Perf. distributor or a factory one ?
