left magneto timing tips, tools, or tricks?

Right after I bought my Skymaster, I had to R&R the rear alternator. There's one nut that is almost impossible to reach in order to remove it. Took several hours but got it done, then the replacement alternator was bad, so we got to do it all again...

I took a bunch of pictures and posted them here. Do the same with your mag, and other owners will benefit from your experience.

David,

bending and grinding is usually the answer - as well as multiple different wrenches; stubbies, offset, etc.

I also have this half moon wrench in my tool box; have used it for most of my tough to reach areas. No doubt, patience and very small turns of the nuts is the main theme of these hard to reach areas

Amen! And to this I may add: Small hands and a good back! Of which I have only one, but I still managed to get-r-done.
