You need to get the oil pump rod lined up so the dist will drop in with the rotor pointed where you want it. You could stick a long screwdriver in the dist hole in the engine and turn the drive. Or you could line the rotor up and bump the engine over until the dist drops into place, then bring #1 to tdc and recheck it, you may have to do it a few times to get it right on.

Someone correct me if im wrong , but it doesnt matter where your rotor points as long as you are on TDC and you use the correct firing order. On my 454 i made sure the rotor was pionted at the #1 cylinder ( because its easy to remember when you reinstall the dist.), which is two terminals in front of the Hei hook up.

If you did not change anything. The first one fwd of the connector is #2. #1 will be just after that one looking down clockwise
