turn engine so that the notch at the rear of the camshaft gear lines up with the metal plate basically inline with the top of the cylinder head,the crankshaft pulley has a notch that must line up with the timing belt cover, remove the distributor cap and line up the rotor with the cut away on the distributor top(should be firing on cyl #1)

What is 1600cc?

1600cc, means 1,600 "Cubic Centimeters". If I remember fight, it's the measurement of a motors total piston cylinder volume. The space in each cylinder. In a four cylinder 1600cc motor, each piston area has a volume of 400cc. 4x400cc=1600cc. Or 1600cc=1.6L, (Liters). Or 1600cc=98ci, (Cubic Inches).
