Take the hold down clamp from the distributor, disconnect the EST wire. Then while the engine is running turn the distributor clockwise, get a timing light, and then if you can get a buddy to read the timing marks on the crank pulley. Then just adjust to your liking. Remember stock is usually a 6* BTDC so I would change it maybe 4* more.
