Timing Question??

I have been told by a few people to check my engine's timing as part of my overheating issue. My engine is an all stock 350 from a 73 chevy blazer. The ignition and distributor are also stock. The pully set up on it blocks the harmonic balancer with the power steering pump and when I crawl underneath, there is no timing tab. I purchased an aftermarket one and pulled the PS pump to install. Am I correct in assuming you set the timing with the PS pump removed? What is the correct timing setting? I have heard various setttings somewhere around 8 deg BTDC?? Does that sound right? Is there anything I am missing here?
