Hi, if you truly suspect that valve timing is off, first see that both valves in cyl #1 are closed when the distributor rotor points to the #1 lead on the cap. The ditributor might be one full engine rev off.... (been there...) Also check the plug leads for correct firing order. If this checks out, you and you want to go deeper you probably will find valve timing info in your Chilton.
Then you need to find TDC in cyl# thru the plug opening and mark it on the crack damper. Install a dial indicator to the valve train and see at what angles the valves open/close and compare to the manual.
I would expect the problem to elsewhere though, if the very basic checks are ok. I would expect some firing even if the chain had jumped a tooth or two.
