I tried both and seems like she was originally closer to 450.  I aligned it to both and seems she likes 450 better.  Anyway to find out for sure?

Also, what are you guys using for alignment tools?  Looks like a 1/4 nut drive.  I have been trying to fudge it with a steel nut driver, removing and checking my meter every turn but would be MUCH easier with a proper tool.  Where could I get one?
