Wooger, what I usually do is put the cap on the distributor while it is out of the engine. Make a mark with a pencil or a marking pen on the distributor to line up the # 1 wire hole on the cap. Take off the cap and transfer the mark to the inside of the distributor where you will be able to line the mark up with the rotor later on.
Spin the motor by hand to TDC # 1 as we told you about earlier. Then drop the distributor in so that the point of the rotor is lined up with your mark. The rotor will want to spin a bit as you drop it in because the cam gear that you are meshing into is circular.. Keep trying until you get the distributor all the way down with the rotor pointing at # 1....
Keep at it buddy, you will get it eventually....
