Well I wanted to make sure you put 'em back on in the right order. I didn't know you had all the fuel rail still assembled.

I say timing is off.

 

[5.0Flareside]

yeah.. just gotta figure out how im gonna get it in time...

Try using a metronome.

Set the time?

Assuming it's all factory, I believe you press and hold the "clock" button, then use the "seek" and "tune" arrows to adjust the hours and minutes, respectively.

Guess I don't see why that would keep you from driving it to work, though...

Pull #1 get it to top of compression stroke. Make sure distributor is in correct position.rotor should be at 1.

thats what i was trying to do.. but i couldnt tell when it was at the top of the compression stroke... was trying the finger over the spark plug hole, but couldnt tell...

wooden dowel will do the trick.

or a screw driver... but theres also the exhaust stroke that hits tdc.........

If you couldn't tell, you were probably on the exhaust stroke. It's hard to hold your thumb over the hole on the compression stroke. I vote you're 180* out.
