Should be a A, B, C, with arrows. You want A. If there numbers im guessing you want #1 that should be TDC.

Thanx for the info, I've got it set to the arrow next to the #1 but it falls on its face just off of idle now. The distributor is set at 6btdc so i guess i'll have to check fuel pump pressure and volume

Did you disconnect the vacuum advance when you set your initial timing? You have to remove that vacuum hose and plug it with something and then set your timing. If you dont you will be running your timing way retarded. Cheers
