Well while putting it in you need to allow the rotor to spin as in engages within the other teeth, make sure the rotor is in the same position as when you took the old one out. If its not, Look at your timing pointer and get it set anywhere from 0 to 10 degrees, get the rotor to point at the #1 firing position and hook everything back up, snug the distro bolt up, start the car let it warm up. Turn off the car pull the spout, get a timing light and set ur timing to 10 degrees. More detail here: http://www.muscularmustangs.com/timing.php

Get the first part in then you can line it up right. It took me a while to actually get it in the block. Use some assembly lube. Worked fine for me.
