You can call your local parts store and they have specifications such as timing, firing order, plug gap, and a host of information. You also need a timing light. But when I set my timing on a carburetor engine I usually loosen the distributor and slowly turn it in either direction until I can hear the engine run at its best then tighten it back up.
