Set the point gap to 0.016.

There are 2 ways to find 35 degrees BTDC with the engine running at 6,000 RPM. The traditional way with an older timing light that does not have a dial adjustment, you have to find the mark on the crankshaft pulley at 35 degrees. With the new adjustable timing lights, you can dial in the 35 degrees on the timing light, and the crankshaft pulley will show up at Z1. Whichever one you are more comfortable with. They both do the same thing.
