Just get notice where the screws have been held on the distributor for a while. You can tell like exactly how it was on. But yea if you do that, mark each spot it will be fine.

the best way that i can think to ball park the timing is to scribe a line across one of the legs of the distributor and continue scribing on to the head. when you put the dizzy back on just line up the marks.
