Ok, make sure #1 piston is up on TDC 0 degrees, looking thru the hole on the
trans you will see the mark on the flywheel and the degrees on the
bellhousing. make sure the distributor is pointing to number 1 plug wire (on
the cap) and the cam shaft gear will have a small hole in it, make sure
that hole is up towards the sky, you will see to arrows on the gear in the
center, line those up with the cam shaft cap straight
-------- at the point wear the cap meets the mating surface of
the head.
good luck
