You don't have to find top dead center. Once you get the distributor cap, rotor, and breaker cover off, make sure that the rubbing block (the piece that touches the cam) is on the corner (high part) of the cam, so that the points are open. Adjust the breaker point directly above the cam by loosening the screw and sliding the point to the proper setting. Do not take the screw out! It is very hard to get back in. The gap between the points (when they are open) is supposed to be .020 inch. The feeler gauge should snugly fit between the points (without moving them). Remember to put grease on the rubbing block! I wore a rubbing block down to nothing once because I forgot to put the grease on it.
