Actually I don't think it will matter. The reason is that there is no
distributor mechanism in the mag, both plugs fire at the same time once per
rev of the crank, this is common on most all 2 cylinder opposed engines. So
if the cam was off by a half turn exactly, then it's still effectively the
same thing. Maybe I've missed something but sounds logical to me.
