[DeTomaso] Cleveland timing pointer

[Julian Kift]

When I saw an email from Larry I thought we were going to get a whole other definition of what a Timing Pointer is in Cleveland, alas nothing so frivalous.
 
A mark on the flywheel might not work as it is much bigger so goes around slower in comapriosn to the dampener....... ;)

   other definition of what a Timing Pointer is in Cleveland, alas nothing
