I ended up removing the distributor and re installing according to FSM. My car has its factory type parts with electronic ignition added at some point. I got engine at TDC and moved the distributor drive gear one tooth so that rotor would be pointing at drivers side front left bolt of intake. As I placed distributor in I made sure the VA was pointing parallel with firewall as its starting point. After firing up and adjusting timing by ear I used my light and and I am happy with the outcome. Thanks everyone for all the input. I really appreciate it.
