My Son in Law removed my distributor helping me prime my new oil pump on my 66 mustang 289. Problem is he is busy and I am stuck putting it back without him. The rotor is pointing at the spot on the block we marked before we pulled it. when I put the cap on I see some diagrams showing the cap should be put on with #1 at 1pm and I see other diagrams show #1 should be at 12 pm looking straight back at the firewall. Do I need to find TDC and put the rotor on at TDC or put the rotor back where it was when we took it out and place the distributor cap on according to a diagram found online showing the cap order on small block fords?. I have not used the starter to bump over the engine or turned the crank since we pulled the distributor, the engine has not moved.
Thanks
