ok here's the deal!
On my Harm. Balancer i have a white mark on 0degrees but on my block the little arrow thing is above a round thing just below! I'm not sure if i line up the arrow or the circle with the 0 degree mark.

Then i don't know which firing order i need to use....
i was trying 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8 but there is another one that is used on the HO motors and the 351's which is...1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8

amnit:

ANY ideas???? Should i actually just take it too a shop?

I am using a MSD6AL and noticed that when i had the plug out but in the ignition wire and held it on the header while my mother cranked the car there was no spark...i know what's wrong but i still dunno what to do about the rest once i fix the spark issue....


THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP

so now i will redo with the 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 firing order and line up the arrow on top dead center...right?

and a timing light is useless til the motor can run as long as it is running even if it is rough, thats only when the timing light is any good!

Right...
