Turn the engine over putting the timing mark on the balancer on 8 degrees. Remove the distributor cap. The rotor should be pointing toward #1 plug wire. (If it is aimed a #6, rotate the engine one full turn). Again with the balancer on 8 degrees, loosen the distributor hold down, turn on the ignition key, turn the distributor till the points fire. Tighten the distributor hold down. This trick will get your timing close enough till you put a timing light on the engine.
