'remastering tracks with truncation'

Hello.
I am trying to get acrojet up and running, and bangui bob has sent me a disk that he thinks will work, but he said the following in his email.
Here are the rules for remastering:
- Remaster at about 300 rpm. Use opencbm's rpm1541.exe to check this on the target NON-original disk (Track 40/41 will be damaged).
- Track 36 must get truncated by nibwrite.
- About 1-25 bytes must be truncated, not more, not less.
You may need to play a little with the drive speed,
and you may need more than one remastering run,
to get a good truncation value within the above bounds.
What does he mean about the 1-25 bytes?
Is he saying there should be 1.25 bytes truncated from the track?
or does he mean that the track should truncate by 25 bytes, like this?
Drive motor speed average: 300.01 RPM.
Track capacity margin: 14
36.0: (3!:7702) [trunc:25 ] (7677) [badgcr:219] (fill:$55)
