225 Slant Six Crank but Won't Start (Fuel but No Spark, Dist. Rotor turns)

Ok here's where I'm at. I replaced the distributor and wires. Now I actually get spark but the engine still won't fire up. To be fair I'm not sure I got the rotor in the right spot as I just slapped the new one in without marking where the old one went. Would having the rotor off or timing off cause the car not to start? I mean it doesn't even act like it wants to. Maybe a fart and then nothing.

Do you think taking the number one spark plug out and adjusting everything to top dead center would help? I'm not exactly sure how to do this.

Thank you for helping me.
