I went to adjust my timing, but I can't find the timing bracket anywhere. I checked all around the harmonic balancer and there is nothing.

I went to have it tuned at a shop last year, and they said they couldn't do it, but I just figured they were incompetent.

I just got done replacing a lifter, and the distributor rotor got accidentally twisted around before I could install, so I got nothing to work on. I have everything else I need, like a timing light and all that crap, but I have no way of knowing how to set the timing.

Is it possible to get a new timing mark, and just bolt it on, or is it a non-standard part? I really need to get this project done, since my cars been off the road for more than a week, and this is the only thing holding me back.

 

Look straight down between the water pump and the timing chain cover at the balancer, see if it’s down there. I was going to help a friend set the timing on his RS and he keep telling me that he did not know were it was but that he could never find it. I looked around and could not see one, so I looked down behind the water pump and found it.
