I'm back on the road - SORT OF

Hey, Y'all. I just finished my first ever engine build in my garage with Google, a little bit o moonshine, a lot of beer, and a splash of profanity. She runs, drives and to my amazement DOESN'T LEAK ANYTHING!! My problem is this: I forgot to put my timing marks back on the motor before I got it all assembled - AND INSTALLED. Now, that she has fired off and runs, I need to figure out what the idle speeds should be. In park and in gear on the brake. Right now, it "sounds good", but i know it isn't right. I have a mild street cam from Summit 272/282 Duration, .442/.465 lift. I have a tach that is going in tomorrow, that way I can get it set right and start enjoying the old girl again. Thanks for any help you all can provide.

Sam
