We do better with tune files and datalogs but I suspect your "seems out of time" comment is correct. The magic happens with the tooth #1 angle, read up on that and make certain the value of 85 is close.

Re: 2.3T ford microsquirt help needed
Have you actually checked the timing with a timing light? If so, does it look right?

Why do you have the hei/dis option on.
Also show a diagram of how you have your LS coils wired.

Re: 2.3T ford microsquirt help needed
Are you getting sync errors of any kind when cranking? Have you verified timing just while cranking, without fuel?
Dwell setting seems high to me as I have my D585 coils setup somewhere in the 3ms range for nominal dwell.

Set your dwell to standard instead of fixed duty. Then in the box bellow that set your dwell to 3.2 and spark duration to 1.0.
