How are you guys phasing the distributor, step by step details would help best. Any help is appreciated

 

1st step is understanding how it works.
here are a few good articles:

 

The steps :
1- number one at top dead center on the compresion stroke
2- stab your distributor at #1<make sure the play on the socket is at half way >
3- make sure that the magnet lines up with the eye at 50d on the crank trigger
4- set up your timing <face the dizzy>
5- sync the timing on the fast with the dizzy

Do you have a start up file setup for your application?

 

I have watch these before good videos but unfortunately these don't describe or talk about (stab) as you mentioned and they don't talk about the 50* at btdc that is needed in my application to setup the crank trigger, or the phasing steps needed for my app like setting the crank to 17* to btdc on the compression stroke and align the rotor with #1 cylinder prong in the distributor, but the guys hooked me up. And so this morning I got to turn the key and she fired right up, thanks for everyone's help.

 

glad you figure it out
is simple ,Just like you would a pushrod motor

btw
stab is installing the dizzy on the head bolt
50d = 50d

exactly .!

your application & my applications are the same

Moving forward from this point.

Here for future references in case another member needs the info

stab the dizzy = installing the distribuitor
setting the crank to x# on the compression stroke and align the rotor with #1 cylinder prong in the distributor

fast forward to 1.0 & watch to 4.35

 

Moving forward from this point.

phasing the distributor

fast forward to 0.55 to 2.45
