You will be happy with the six degrees. Turning the distributor will have no effect except posibly cross firing a plug. The ignition picks up its signal from a crank sensor on the flywheel. The purpose of the resistor is to adjust the advance for different fuels in different countries. I think the 750 ohm resistor is for unleaded regular. You will probably need to use 93 octane with the resistor out.
