Don't worry about the points as long as they're set at .013". Bring No1 piston to TDC on the compression stroke and then see where the rotor is pointing. You need a helper, one to watch the screwdriver rise after you feel compression against your thumb and one to slowly hand crank the engine. Once the piston is at TDC ( its there when it quits rising) look to see where the rotor is and also the notch on the damper pulley
should be at the pointer.

If the notch is off you may have a sheared woodruff key on the cam gear. No1 piston and the
notch (timing mark) are all related in an engine.
Not only is your ignition related, but your valves
too. If the key happens to shear it will throw off the valve timing too. Hal
PS: Here's an IH distributor and No1 plug wire goes in the top right hole of the cap.
