Subject:      Engine Questions

Okay so let me get this out of the way right now... this is my first time.


I just got my GEX engine.  I have all of the accessories from the engine I
used to have.  NOW what should I do.  I noticed that there was a little tag
near the distriributor mount which said "Do not rotate engine until dist is
installed"


Why?


Is it becvause it has been set at TDC?  DFoes this mean I could set the
pulley wheel correctly as well?


All help will be greatly appreciated!


Also want to thank the NUMEROUS people who helped me on the window install
- it was the lack of lubricant which made it so difficult.  (hmm, sounds
very bad.. :-)
