> What is the definition of dwell angle?

Here is mine…

Dwell angle is the number of degrees of distributor cam rotation through which the points remain fully closed. Conducting electricity. Increasing the point gap decreases the dwell angle, while decreasing the point gap increases the dwell angle.

Has anyone actual measured it on a Seven?

Why??
