Distributor wires, what's this?

Post by JeepdaddyRC » Tue Jan 26, 2021 9:38 am

Plug wires are not in correct locations. Number 4 is at bottom left (7:00 o'clock position).
Continuing counter-clockwise we have 2, 1, 3.
Pulley marks for 5 degrees/TDC line up when the rotor points to #4 plug (7:00 o'clock position).
Oil pump was not clocked correctly?
Until I change it, can I time this engine with the timing light at the #4 plug wire?
42 GPW #91366, recovered blue drab registration 20200841, unit markings 104-415-I HQ-21 (Timberwolves)
CJs (x 4)
