You wanna shoot for 36-38 degrees total, 10-12 degrees initial + 26 mechanical (to achieve 26 mechanical you need to use the 13L advance slot).

new internals as in aftermarket or stock? if stock then what was stated above. if you have an aftermarket cam then i'm pretty sure you set the initial to where the cam card tells you.

I bought it off of a parts truck a few moths ago. I have no idea who made it, but i'm sure it's not being made anymore. You're best bet is to search on craigslist, that's where I found mine.
