CB350F Crank Rotation?

CB350f Cafe

Been Around the Block
I'm not seeing any arrows on the spark advancer. Trying to set electronic ignition timing and when turning crank clockwise the timing is way off (test light comes on way too early, but shuts off near F mark). Only reason I ask is because I'm watching a video on a cb750 and theirs is clockwise, figured it be the same, but I'm getting different results.
 
Just found that its clockwise. Now to figure out why my timing is so far off.




So with some background info, I rebuilt my motor because the starter clutch grenaded itself resulting me in replacing my Primary Drive Chain. Upon reassembly, I followed the service manual for the valve timing.
Crank to "T" 1.4 and making sure the cam sprocket matching lines are parallel to the head. Motor does full rotation with no interference with the valves. I also went ahead and adjusted valve clearance.

[font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif]When doing ignition timing I connected a test light to the yellow wire from coil 2/3 and grounded the other end. When rotating crank (power on, also coil is getting 12v), the test light comes on way too early. [/font]
[font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif]This is with the entire plate in full retard position. I would link a video explaining visually, but youtube isn't cooperating. No matter how advance I set the plate or adjust the modules I can never get it to light up right on the F mark.[/font]

[font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Is this a result of an incorrect valve timing? And is there a way to double check valve timing without taking the valve cover off? [/font]
