Welp, if you put in a new manifold. you removed your dist.
So you have to recheck your timing anyways
so just turn it so it fits(retard action) and see where that gets ya

The timing is really retarded, i can't turn the cap anymore because the clamp is catching on the manifold, somewhere i heard of a smaller cap, i was just wondering who made a smaller one that had more room?
