timing question


I have a 1994 cobra with a ford racing harmonic balancer and the timing marks are from 0 to 40 degrees after top dead center on the harmonic balancer, how do I set the timing before top dead center? , what should I set my timing at for a 100 shot?

There has to be marks on the balancer for btdc. Otherwise I'd throw it away and get a good one.

Run 92+ octane and leave the timing where it is. 100hp of nitrous isn't much at all. I've never pulled timing out when I sprayed less than 150.
