I knew it was someone here that posted that.

The S in sight hole doesn't mean the cam and crank are in time just means that's when you have your points opening up. Ask around maybe you can borrow a timing light or do a free tool rental at the auto parts store. You'll have to place a deposit but they will refund it once you return the timming light.
