I made a butterfly degree wheel for my T100 out of cardboard and a computer print out pasted onto it. It runs off the end of the cam. The degrees are a bit different since the cam turns at half engine speed. The T100 has one thing going for it. It has a centering hole in the case so you can find the TDC detent in the crank.  I was able to strobe the T100 using my makeshift degree wheel and a pointer. It's a first kick starter now.


 I was thinking about doing this to the Norton. Using a dial indicator to find true TDC and checking if the degree graduations on the case are accurate. My poor old eyes are so shot I was having trouble locating the timing marks in that hole.
