For a 1966 Mustang with a 289 engine, the gap for dwell and timing is typically set as follows: the ignition point gap should be around 0.019 to 0.022 inches, and the dwell angle should be between 28 to 32 degrees. The timing should be set to around 6-10 degrees before top dead center (BTDC) at idle. Always refer to the specific service manual for precise settings as they may vary slightly based on the engine's configuration and any modifications.
