New Build Startup Issue

If you take the Distributor out, The slot in the top of the Distributor Drive gear needs to point to the front Intake Manifold bolt at TDC compression stroke. The gear rotates in and out, so make sure it's fully seated in there. The Dis, Rotor should then point at #1 plug wire on the cap. Which should pretty much be straight ahead
Ok, been in the garage.
Balancer still at 20, #1 still coming up on comp, rotated the dist gear one and two teeth, back to one. The dist hold down is in the middle’ish of the adjustment and the rotor is facing forward/drivers side, and the rotor is on the #1 mark that I made for the cap.
