I've got a guy calling me in the morning (before I have time to get to the shop and look it up) for ignition timing specs on a 1961 Ford Falcon.

First he said 140 CID engine, then, after thinking about it, he though 170 CID engine.

I'd imagine the specs would be about the same, anyway.

Can anyone help?
