You'll probably have to locate the marks for yourself. My GT6-3 has all
the necessary markings, but the Bentley GT6 manual does describe a
process by which you can make incremental timing marks using a compass,
but I won't assume for a minute that the GT6 measurements are the same
as what would be required on a Spitfire. Anyone got a Bentley Spitfire
manual for Brad?
