You can't check dwell without a meter. You can set the points with a .016 feeler gauge. Your knees and back and neck will need medical attention after. Take neg battery cable off. Take off the cap and rotor. You have to rock the truck in gear or turn the motor to get the point's phenolic "follower" up on a distributor lobe. Fiddle the feeler in, parallel and between point pads/contacts and adjust screw to get a slight drag of the gauge.
If your distributor (Dizzy) has a "window" with lift up "door", I would get a dwell meter. They are cheap. They also have an RPM scale for setting timing, carb, etc. Be sure it will read 8 Cyl AND 6 Cyl. SO MUCH easier to set points, you do it with motor running, no lobe on cam or gauge no climbing on motor. Just open the window and use an allen on the screw. Dwell meter is obsolete. Ebay is the best place. $5 and up.
I don't mean to be explaining something you already know.

I don't know any of that, so you're good. I'll take a peek at it in the morning!
Thanks!

Some people are like slinkys. Not worth much but funny as heck when pushed down stairs.
