The points should be at .020 (or even a tad less, but not more). the plugs at .030 (make sure you get the right number plug) The carb, start at one full turn open on the low speed and (if it has a high speed needle valve) one and a half turns open.

Points 0.020"

Plugs: J6C gapped at 0.030"

See Joe Reeves' item on the "Engine Frequently Asked Questions" board for the full instructions for setting the carb needle valves

The initial settings are high speed (lower one) 1 turn out, low speed (upper one) 1? turns.
