With #1 at TDC, and the mark on the balancer aligned with 0 on the timing tab, the dot on the cam sprocket would be at 6:00, and the crank sprocket would be 12:00.
However, this comes with a caveat: I did run into a 350 Chevy once that had both the dots at 12:00 when the engine was at #1TDC. Never did figure out why.
So, if you've got it set at 6 and 12, and you're adjustments aren't working out right; reset the timing chain so that it is on 12 and 12, and try again. I think it was one of those 77 and up engines with the timing tab on top instead of at 3:00.

Well if you lined up the timing marks properly then it would not matter. The engine would run anyway.
