Dude. I have been looking through my 88 FSM for about 30-45 minutes. Can't find it, can only find valve timing relative to the crankshaft.

If I were you I would just set it up with the rotor facing 20 degrees towards the 1 cylinder mark on the cap. Sad Sorry man.

Ah. Man thats alright. I jsut have no clue on how to set the distributor timing on our cars. I looked for a forum, and couldn't find any threads (though i'm sure there are). Ugh, i'll just keep on searching.

Well your question's only been up now for a few mins, so give it the course of the evening and see what someone says. I'm on my phone and in class or I'd go look right now.
