You said you have it running, therefore you do not need to find the timing mark. These non-sophisticated engines can be timed by ear. Retard and advance the mag by moving the top toward and away from the block. It will run rough or show a decrease in rpm when moved too far in either direction. Stop when you have the maximum rpm. It is ok as long as it does not ping under a heavy load. Occasional pinging is ok, just as it used to be when accelerating an older car. Too much is detrimental. Some people use timing lights, but I don't have the figures for a given rpm.
