this engine has never fired, so you need #1 @TDC. on a previously running engine the roter don't need to be placed pointed towards #1 unless the distributer has been completly taken out.

@but199018 the whole point to this dist. cap ...you missed it...watch the video again..they rerout the cap internally to allow the wires to not intersect/cross and make the cleaner look....you want difftcult check out a vertex magneto crab style cap

Aren't the wires installed in the wrong firing order? If the rotor rotates clock wise the wires should be wired starting from 1 going clockwise 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2.

I have a 350 5.7 TPI in an'89 Trans Am. Would I use this same order on there as well? I got this order from Advanced Auto. 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2. Am I missing something?

I'm currently working on an HEI Powerstroke conversion.
Hopefully I get the wires hooked up up rightly.

Please, Please do this for the Accel Dual Sync distributor. I hate how my wires are all crossed up.

@fyrbird88 you got your firing order off and the cap is corrected internally and the correct firing order you listed is corrected in the black area inside the cap, so that it looks nicer when all the wires connect on the same side of the distributor. Just remember one is still one then the rest is simple if you have the distributor clocked right.
