I'm trying to set the initial timing on my car prior to setting dwell and adjust using strobe light.
What is the easiest way to turn the engine over to static time everything?

If your car isnt TOO high of compression, I have turned the motor with one of the fan bolts if I had to.

Otherwise, jack up one side, put the car in 5th, and turn the lifted wheel by hand for highest accuracy.

For static timing, I try to put the Fan at ~ 5 deg BTDC
