To set the timing on a 1972 460 cubic inch engine, first ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder number one. Next, locate the timing mark on the harmonic balancer and align it with the specified timing degree on the timing tab, typically around 6-12 degrees BTDC for this engine. Finally, loosen the distributor hold-down bolt, rotate the distributor to achieve the desired timing, and retighten the bolt. Always double-check the timing with a timing light after adjustments.
