mechanical timing retard

That's what people typically use when they have carbs, so there's no reason it shouldn't work. The concept is based on
Centripetal force - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
that phenomena. Knowing that the dizzy spins 1/2 as fast as the crank you can use math, springs, and weights to work things.
The ones in carb'd cars are in two pieces, one directly mounted to the dizzy, and one attatched to that to trigger the sensor on a spring.

You can see the spring is in the radial direction.
It would be a lot easier to convert to a computer you can adjust spark timing with.
