misprint in FSM?

I think i just found a misprint in the 86 FSM. the spec page lists the port closing time on the 6-port motor as 70 degrees after, when every other source ive seen list it as 80 after for 86-92 (70 was the gsl-se's aux ports timmings) I even have an SAE paper listing it as 80, also rotaryengineillistraded.com, so is this a typo? can anyone tell me what the 88 manuel says for the aux port closing time?

You don't say which port...

For NA, as per the 88 FSM:

Primary and secondary intake ports open 32deg ATDC
Auxiliary intake ports open 45deg ATDC

Primary intake ports close 40deg ABDC
Secondary intake ports close 30deg ABDC
Auxiliary intake ports open 70deg ABDC

Exhaust ports open 75deg BBDC
Exhaust ports close 48deg ATDC

Yep, S5 port timing is exactly the same except for the auxiliary port closing at 80deg ABDC. SAE were obviously referring to later engines.

you sure? im pretty sure the aux ports are exactly the same on the 86's and the 89's. I've got the 89 port traced on one of my templates, when i tear down my 86 motor ill compare but as far as i know there the same.
