Thanks.
TDC would seem a bit late - it's sitting at about 7 BTDC now, however that
could be incorrect since not much else was right, except dwell, which was
right on.
They never did use radical specs. That little 290 is a screamer now that
it's carb is clean inside and it's better adjusted.

It doesn't really state so.  However, I believe you are correct.


How about timing?
Timing is TDC with the vacuum hose or tube disconnected at the distributor 
and the disconnected line (hose or tube) plugged so the idle speed will not
be 
affected.

Firing order is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2
