Default please help a newbie!! need to time '85 accord

hi guys! im new(obviously) amd i need help timing the accord i just got today. its a '85 LX with a 3 barrel carb. thats all i know right now. basicly, the previous owner had removed the (hitatchi)distributor to install a new ignition module(i think thats what it was) and he didnt mark how it came out, so i dont know how it goes back in. as i understand it, it could be in right or be 180 degrees wrong. does that sound right? if thats the case, how do i know if its in right? also,once i figure out how it goes in, where are the timing marks on the pulley and block and what should the timing be set at? thank you guys in advance for all you help!

There aren't a lot of 2rd generation accord people here but if you go to http://3geez.com/ There are a lot of 3rd gen people and probably some 2nd gen people also. They may be able to help...
