Engine setting procedure?

peterfenlonMember

this week I have fitted my new 600 holley carb and also the Edelbrock inlet manifold on my car,
Reading the Holley supplied info it said that it had been test run and settings were good enough to get the engine running, and they were right!
I have fitted a new standard mechanical fuel pump
which works a treat as one of my connections to the carb wasn't quite tight enough, wow what a spray of fuel! thats now OK. So question is how do I check the ignition Timing, I see no marks on the front pulley and little from the rear/gearbox end, usually there are marks showing degrees on a pulley to set at ? degree before TDC, my engine now runs but I would like to get it set up pretty much right myself.
