How do you set timing on a 1978 580 case construction king backhoe?

To set the timing on a 1978 Case 580 Construction King backhoe, first, ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for the number one cylinder. Next, remove the timing cover to access the timing marks on the crankshaft and camshaft gears. Align the timing marks according to the manufacturer's specifications and adjust the distributor to ensure the ignition timing is set correctly. Finally, reassemble any components removed and start the engine to verify proper timing.

1978 350 timing?

You have 2 notches on the timing gears one on the camshaft gear and one on the crankshaft gear. Align them so that the (top) camshaft gear is pointing straight down, and at the same time align the (bottom) crankshaft gear so that it is pointing straight up. The two marks should be perfectly aligned with each other. I almost forgot, make sure your # 1 piston is at "top dead center" before doing this.
