timing question

Hello,

I am new here to the 2nd gen part of this forum. I drive an 85 gsl-se.

I have a question or two about the 2nd gen N/A cars.

1) What is the leading timing set to?

2) Are they direct fire?

Thanks for any help or info on this...

Timing is set at the yellow mark - He he, just kidding.
Actually, it is 5 degrees ATDC. Yes, the leading ignition is direct (as is the trailing). It is a GM-like setup, one coil fires both leading plugs (extra spark on exhaust cycle for each rotor).
