setting timing marks
is it ok to simply line up the timing sprocket marks to set the timing on my 355.will I have enough adjustment in the distrubutor?I think using a degree wheel and all that is a little above my current Know how.

12-6 would be a lot better than 12-7.
Personally, I always do 12-6. 12-12 is just too much of a guess.
Distributor timing is not affected by the cam timing since you're going to be adjust that, anyway.
