While watching the mark, blip it from 3000RPMs to 4000RPM or so to make sure the timing is all in, and then let it idle and see where you are.
Most distributors will have about 20 degrees advance in the, so your base timing will probably end up somewhere in the 14 to 16 range?

Sorry, forgot to mention. This is an original distributor from 69, nothing aftermarket here.
