top dead center is what it stands for. top dead center
The top dead center is when the piston has reached its peak and can go no farther up, it has reached its summit. The bottom dead center is when the piston is at its lowest point.
looking at the timing marks from the top left to right you have 5 degrees after top dead center, then top dead center then 5 degres 10, 15 then 20 befor top dead center. the timing is 7 degrees before top dead center
