Depends on the type of system and the particular engine. You didn't give that info.

An elec switch simply replaces the mechanical points switching coil current on or off. Timing involves when the spark occurs which is approximately when points open orrrrrrrrrrrr an elec switch opens. I dont know what else to tell you thats theory but ask Ford men how to time it ??

Time it with a timing light, using the marks on the flywheel, EXACTLY as you would if it still had breaker points.
