It depends on whether the distributor gear has ever been removed and if it was put back in the same orientation as the original factory installation. But to make it easy, just put the #1 cylinder at TDC of the COMPRESSION cycle. If you're having trouble distinguishing between the compression TDC and intake TDC, pull the #1 plug and put your finger over the hole then turn the crankshaft by hand until you can feel air pressure building up against your finger. Continue to slowly turn the engine until you get to the point where the cylinder is all the way toward the top. You should be able to tell because turning the engine either way will cause the cylinder to suck against your finger. Align the dampner pulley mark to the #1 indicator, and wherever the distributor rotor is pointing... that's where you plug in the #1 wire. Do it that way and it doesn't matter if the distributor has been removed and put back wrong.
The number 1 cylinder wire on a Chevrolet 350 distributor is usually connected to the distributor cap terminal marked "1." This wire runs from the ignition coil to the number 1 spark plug, which is typically the front spark plug on the driver's side of the engine.
For a 1987 Chevy pickup with a 350 engine and a non-HEI ignition system, the wire that is typically used for connecting a tachometer is the green wire located on the distributor cap. This wire provides the signal needed for the tachometer to work accurately. Make sure to consult the vehicle's manual or a wiring diagram to locate the specific wire on your truck.
This is a voltage drop question. To answer this question the voltage of the pump must be stated
For a 30 amp circuit running 350 feet, it is recommended to use at least a 10-gauge wire to account for voltage drop over the distance. This heavier gauge wire will ensure the safe and efficient delivery of power over the longer distance.
The maximum amperage that can be run through a wire depends on the wire gauge and the insulation. Generally, with 350 ft of wire, you need to consider the wire gauge (or thickness) to determine the maximum safe amperage. It is recommended to consult with an electrician to determine the appropriate wire size for the specific application and amperage requirements.
That can't be answered until you state the voltage.
umm, 8?
where does the hot wire come from going to the distributor on a chevy 350
Firing order on a 350 Chevrolet is 18436572
Yes, it will work. If the 454 was a tall deck design, you'd need to shim the distributor up .400" to mate with the 350 oil pump shaft.
INSERT PLUG WIRE IN SERIES WITH NO. 1 CYLINDER AND CONNECT BATTERY + TO RED WIRE AND BLACK WIRE TO BATTERY - TERMINAL
Drivers side, first cylinder up front.
It will not matter what distributor you have as All V8 Chevrolet's firing order is 1,8,4,3,6,5,7,2. 1,3,5,7 is on the left bank and 2,4,6,8 is on the right bank. The distributor turns clockwise
18436572
It is the forward-most cylinder on the passenger side of the engine.
Number one is designated by where ever the spark plug wire from the number one cylinder is placed. Number one cylinder is the first cylinder on the the drivers side at the front of the car.
