Loosen the distributor hold down first. On most distributors turning clockwise will advance timing, CCW will retard timing. For V8s I like to set the timing like this:
Advance timing a bit, then grab the throttle on the carb and rev the engine to full throttle. Keep repeating these 2 steps until the engine stumbles or pings when you rev it up. When you get to that point set the timing back just a touch, and rev it again to make sure you are at the point just before where it wants to stumble.

It has a timing CHAIN
The timing for a 1995 Ford F-150 with a 302 engine is typically set to 10 degrees BTDC (Before Top Dead Center) at idle with the vacuum advance disconnected. It's important to ensure that the engine is at operating temperature and that the timing is checked with a timing light for accuracy. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for specific details and adjustments.
Ford V-8 engines do not have timing belts.
