distributor installation

[slats]

Thankyou for responding Hobgoblin. I have a 69 coupe with a 302. Some modifications, bored 30 over, 292 comp cam kit, and I believe a high output oil pump. I talked to a friend a couple of hours ago, and he thought it would seat it self once I dropped in the new distributor and turned the engine a little with the crankbolt. By no means is he an expert. I have always liked muscle cars and this is my first one. I am kind of a novice when working on cars, but I am learning to enjoy it. At age 51, I guess I,m a late bloomer. I want the easy way to do this but more importantly, the right way. Does my friends way seem like it might work?
