Default Sanity check needed

Doing the mini-me this weekend. Y8 head on a d15b2. My order for an adjustable cam gear got messed up so its not arriving now :-(

So to make this work on the stock Y8 cam gear, do I retard the cam timing to the next closest tooth, then advance the ingition timing till it lines up on the crank marker? Or do I have it backwards?

If I remember correctly all you have to do is advance the timing 1 tooth. It's been a while since we did our last mini-me swap, but I believe that's all we had to do.
