#1 can be any tower on the distributor, as long it matches were the rotor is pointing at TDC. Then wired for clock-wise rotation 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 (same as a Chevy). Many like to install
the distributor so the rotor points to the #1 piston (driver’s side front). Here’s how the Dart was wired when acquired in Aug 2012, #1 has a close pin on it my Grandpa had there since 1990. Well he did work as a mechanic.......... (The wires cross under
the heater hoses in this pic, don’t let that confuse you - they are on the valve cover holder in order).

As far as the distributor goes you need to get #1 piston to top dead center on the compression stroke (piston all the way up and both valves closed) then install the distributor so the rotor points to the #1 spark plug lead. Been quite
a few years since I had a poly so can't tell you right off which tower on the distributor cap should be used for #1. But there are plenty of guys here that can. Paul L. Will the original 2bbl carb linkage on a 64 Fury 318 poly fit the Edelbrock 4bbl Performer 1405 carb? I just installed the 1405 carb on my Fury and the accelerator linkage and return spring set-up seem to be wrong (short linkage). It appears that I can drill the carb accelerator link setup to accommodate the Mopar
pedal ball link, but things seem short to reach the 4bbl in a correct manner. If it needs to be changed or "fixed", what has everyone done to make it work? I am anxious to get this engine started and broken in ASAP. Also, since the distributor has been out of the car, what is the easiest way to sync the distributor to the engine to get it close enough to get the car to start?
