#1; On the Compression stroke of Cylinder #1.
#2; Push the Vcan towards the firewall as far as it will go, then pull it forward until the nearest reluctor vane aligns with the pole piece of the magnetic pick-up. Now; with a shapie, mark the body of the D where the rotor is pointing, then install the cap. Install the #1 plug wire into the tower above the sharpie mark, then in CW fashion, install the rest of the wires in the correct firing order.
>If the mark you made is NOT under any tower, STOP! Make sure it is within about 1/4 of a tower's separation distance, then proceed. If it gets to a half a tower, the spark may jump to the wrong tower; so we gotta fix that BEFORE ever cranking the engine!

Exact timing for break-in is not important. After it fires up and the rpm is set to at least 2200 rpm, I just pull on the Vcan, to advance the timing until the rpm plateaus (stops increasing) then retard it a smidgen. Finally, I reset the rpm closer to 2500.

I hope that clarifies things for you.
I’d like to post what I got going on with some pictures if the OP is okay with it... @dart_68
