This will put you close to top dead center for #1. Drop the distributor back in with the rotor face towards the #1 on your cap and than start the car up and set the timing. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>cees87drop</b> <br /><small>Member # 4066</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,6,8,22,58,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0));
