When I bought my car the Emmisions label was missing... What does it say?

I bought my car second hand with no emmisions label under the hood. In my stock 1985 305 4bbl (Not high output) what does the label say?

I want to know what the timing is supposed to be, spark plug gap, and how to adjust the idle speed... And whatever else is on there..

Thanks.

IIRC the timing is supposed to be 6° BTDC with the 4-pin connector behind the distributor disconnected. Idle should be 700 if it's a stick, 600 in gear for an auto.
