Maybe, maybe not -- is it "adjustable"?  Like a Snap-On Adjustable 
Timing Light Part Number: MT2261AP?  My first adjustable probably was 
produced about forty years ago, but didn't have a degree indicator, just 
a knob, so you had to figure things out for yourself.  Timing lights are 
nearly becoming obsolete in this era of knock sensing computer 
ignitions,  so if you don't have a good "modern" one, now would be a 
good time to ask Santa to put you on his/her list.

For the uninitiated, Rocky Rotella has already written up a pretty good 
little basic primer about various uses for an adjustable timing light on 
this hi pro Pontiac website --
