If the distributor has only been turned the rotor should still be pointed to where number one would normally be. To change the chain and gears you'll have to pull the water pump and timing chain cover, it's fairly simple if you take your time and should cost you less than $100.

Ok, thanks for telling me how to do that. Do I just pull the cap off of the distributer to see where the rotor is pointing? Trying to learn as much as I can. All of this help is very much appreciated
