On a 71 car with a big block what was the orig dist position (what way was the vac can pointing ) and what terminal does the number 1 wire go to ???? I know its 18436572 counter clockwise but what terminal did the factory put the number 1 wire on ? Im using a MP elec dist froma later year if that make a difference. I could not find this anyware in the FSM.

Usually the first or second terminal clockwise from the clip in the front.

I always just think, behind the rear clip, work you way forward.
