Ouch. Looks like you will be buying parts.
One more thing about ignition timing: You don't always need to run the vacuum advance. Mine is plugged, I don't even use it.
When you run a larger cam, they like more initial timing. If your mechanical curve is enough, then you are all set.
My distributor is set for 18 at idle, and around 36 max when I rev it up.
Vacuum advance is plugged.
