It is between #2 and #8 on a Chevy......
Seriously, rotate the engine so that the timing mark is on zero. When there, the distributor rotor is either pointing to #1 OR pointing to #6 (180 degrees out). Take the cap off and look where the rotor is pointing.
Do a simple search on this site for distributor alignment and follow the simple directions.......

Thanks for the help.... I just realized it does not matter I can wire the cap starting anywhere I want as long as I maintain the firing order and position the vaccum port to allow for adjustments.
Fired the engine up an hour ago and now I am on to the next issue...

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
