Fixed. The distributor gear has an extra mark on one side and that side should line up with the rotor. By rotating the gear 180 degrees now the distributor is pretty well lined up perfectly with the engine and there is room around the plug wires to the firewall. After all, who likes riding their bicycle down the road with the handlebars cocked to one side or the other?
