You need to get a timing tab that has numbers and replace the one on the motor OR you can get an adjustable timing light, set your base timing (say 10*) and then mark it up with the current timing tab.ow to time HEI & carb 1999 Vortec 350. I swapped a 1999 vortec 5.7 into my 92' camaro. My question is How the heck do i time this thing. I ditched the computer/ Fuel injection for a carb. I have the plastic vortec timing cover and the vortec 8 balancer.
