my brothers 75 LTD could never seem to be tuned correctly - always running 6 deg retarded even immediately after servicing.

Our auto electrician at the time (who was also a mechanic) said he would look at it for him - the dizzy was seized to the block & it took 3 days to get it undone. Curious as to how the other "mechanics" managed to tune it like that.
