/6 Timing has me stumped!
Apparently, there are guys who have this same situation...".The picture with the chain dot to dot looks correct. When it is in that position, the rotor points to #6. #1 and #6 are at TDC but, #1 is exhaust and #6 is compression. Drop distributor in pointing to #6, yes #6 when dot to dot." I looked at a /6 camshaft and the intake lobe of #1 (with cam dowel straight up as in pic 1) is at full lift at 11:00, its exhaust lobe is at 2:00; while the intake of #6 is polar opposite, pointing at 5:00. Generally on an older Mopar, the keyway on a crank is the position of the first throw.
