Hi Tanner, Why don't you use a timing light. Mark the knotch or groove on the pulley with a piece of chalk. Hook the timing light to the battery posts and the other lead to No1 sparkplug that is closest to the radiator. My light is the inductive type that you just clip over the sparkplug wire. You may have a use piece of copper tubing to slide over the end of plug and hook the plug wire to the tubing, then hook timing light to tubing too. Run engine at an idle and switch on timing light. The light should blink every time the engine fires on No1. Note where chalk is on damper pulley. Should be close to pointer. You move distributor gently until both marks are aligned. Easier if you have a helper. Loosen distr. just enough so it can be rotated if needed. Retighten when timing is set. Hal
