Dave,
I'm not near my MGA manuals at the moment, but you should be able to mark
the new gear(s) by referring to the old gears. Position the old and new
side-by-side and mark the new one by counting the teeth rotationally from
the keyway slot. It's pretty obvious if you're off a tooth either way, so
transferring the marks by counting should work fine.
If the old gears also don't have a timing mark, email me off net and I'll
chase down my shop manual.
Cheers,
Lew Palmer
