Timing issue 360 LA

When you have the motor at DTC, and you put the oil pump shaft in, the slot in the top that the blade of the distro fits into should be facing #1, then when you drop in the distro, it should be facing number one.

As a side note, you should always degree a cam when it goes in. There are times when the “timing dots” are not correct.
Ok, I better start with this, it is facing number 7 or 5, more around there. I just thought from my reading that none of that matters if you put the wires in the correct spot. I just moved my wires so they started at number 5
