Re: to locate correct timing mark
If the cover & damper match & have the tab on the cover it should be right.

Re: to locate correct timing mark
So you don't have any timing tab? I know most aftermarket covers don't have a tab but there are ones that bolt on based on the diameter of the damper you are using.
If you get one of the bolt on style tabs, if you set your #1 to TDC, the tab should line up with the 0 mark.

Re: to locate correct timing mark
What size damper do you have? I have some tabs for the small 6 in diameter one.
