The proper dwell setting for a 455 Oldsmobile typically falls between 28 to 32 degrees. For timing, the initial advance is usually set around 8 to 12 degrees BTDC (Before Top Dead Center) for optimal performance, but this can vary based on modifications and specific engine setups. It's always a good idea to consult the vehicle's service manual for the exact specifications tailored to your specific engine. Regular adjustments may be necessary to accommodate changes in fuel type or engine condition.
I set my 350 olds to 30 at 2000rpm
I didn't see a specific year year you're interested in, however a 1978 Olds 403 is listed as 18 degrees initial timing (detach and plug vacuum advance hose while setting initial advance).

The best way to find 6 degrees on a 1969 Olds 350 Rocket timing tab is with a diagram which can be found in a repair manual. The timing markings are on the pulley.

what are the timing belt marks for a 1995 olds cutlass supreme
I need to know where the timing chain is located in a 1988 Olds 98 regency brougham, and how expensive a timing chain is.
To set the timing on a 1989 Olds 88, first ensure the engine is off and at operating temperature. Locate the timing mark on the crankshaft pulley and the timing scale on the engine. Use a timing light connected to the number one spark plug wire, then start the engine and point the light at the timing marks. Adjust the distributor until the timing mark aligns with the specified degree on the scale, then tighten the distributor hold-down bolt and recheck the timing.

I have a 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue 3.5 liter, I will like to know were the Timing chain marks.
