It will make a lot more sense when see it for yourself.
If what you are saying were true, then what's the point about rotating the IP by small increases until getting exactly to a given precise count, which is very much an important step in all the tutorials on IP timing I've read so far? One would just set the degree number on the balancer (with cams in the proper position) and move the IP until getting ANY count... However, there are very distinct rates for doing this: 1 drop/sec, 1 drop every 20 secs, etc. I doubt that your answer is it...
Will someone with some solid technical (as opposed to practical) background step in and clarify this for all of us, please...
