the new one will slide in the same direction the old one came out. Every thing will stay lined up, as long as you dont turn the engine over. Just take note where its pointed you remove it, and install the new one the same way, it doesnt matter what cyl its on. As tommy said the rotor will rotate alittle bit as you pull the distributor up, when you install the new one, start the rotor where the old one left off and it will rotate right into position, as you push it down.
