Distributor install...? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well I just got another distributor in the mail today from Super Duck and I'm getting ready to take out my old one and put this guy in.

I have a question though...how do I put in the distributor without totally messing up my timing? Will lining up the rotor on the new dizzy like the rotor is in my old dizzy get it close enough? Also lets say its off by alot could I just turn the dizzy so the rotor is right at the #1 cylinder at TDC?

This will actually be my first time removing the distributor and I'm pretty sure I can get it out alright but putting in another distributor and have it work I'm a little iffy on.

Thanks,

Kevin

By the way Super Duck is one heck of a nice guy
