No start on rebuilt 360LA
I don't see anyone asking how you set your cam timimg.
If you set your cam gears dot to dot, you have it set to fire on #6 at TDC on compression.
Roll the engine over one revolution (360*). Now the upper cam gear dot is at 12:00 o'clock, and the lower crankshaft gear should up at 12:00 o'clock too.
This is where you want to drop the distributor in to fire on #1 cylinder that is up on compression stroke. Usually pointing to the front driver's side, intake manifold mount bolt.
Take a straight edge across the upper cam gear to the top of the crank gear and make sure they are in proper alignment.
Firing up on #1 cylinder on compression stroke. Reposition wires on the distributor cap to correspond to firing on #1 and work around the cap with the mopar firing order going Clockwise looking down at it.
Turn the key and it starts right up. Amazing!
