Timing Q

[1967coupe]

I know that this subject has probably been posted to death but...I installed my new intake today and while putting the distributor back in I rotated the engine a little bit (obviously too much) and now it won't run (barely) unless it's at full throttle. Should I start by pulling the distributor and cranking the engine back a little bit at a time, or should I start from square one, and if so could someone point me to the direction to a good thread on this subject.

I just posted about a similar problem. I am going to reinstall everything at TDC, and hopefully have a smooth running engine.
