I was helping my buddy with the above car which he just got. Ran like crap so started with the basics. The plug wires were not on the distributor cap correctly so we installed per the service manual. Referenced from TDC confirmed with the rotor button pointing correctly to number 1. Installed the wires. Now the car will not even start! Someone put an orange box and matching distributor in the car. I have not confirmed the box is hooked up correctly yet, but if the plug wires are on correctly and connected to the correct plugs. What in the World would prevent this car from firing? I also have a 69 Charger RT which is bone stock original and I used my distributor location as a metric to get his car started. Nothing won't fire off. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks
