Timing gears are set by removing the front timing cover and bringing the engine up to top dead center on the compression stroke of #1 cylinder. There are marks on the camshaft gear and the crankshaft gear which need to be lined up. This is a timing chain and gear set up. If you are asking to just adjust your timing, you need to hook up a timing light to #1 spark plug wire and have a mark on the harmonic balancer. To adjust timing, simply loosen the distributor and turn it slightly until proper timing is achieved.
