Chevrolet: hei ign., oil pump, rotor


Question
from points to electronic ign. does the rotor point the same way as the old one i'm going to take out and do the wires go in the same order?

Answer
yes- but you should do it when the rotor is on the no 1 plug spot on the cap. and with the timming mark on tdc. as it must go in the same way. so that is the best way ok and do not turn the engine over at all when you have the dist out if you have the rotor on the no 1 plug spot but it will not go down all the way , than hold the dist in place and so it can not pop up and out and have someone tap the key the gears will align on the cam and than the dist. will fall in place on the oil pump,..than bolt it down , and re time ok
