Is there any tricks to installing a distributor to get it to point at the number one cylinder on a 1963 cadillac deville 390 motor?

HI There is no real trick. The best way to acccomplish this is to first have the number one piston up at the top on the compression stroke.(number one piston must be at top of compression stroke) To be sure of this, pull out the spark plug in number one cylinder and take off the rocker cover. When the piston is on its way up and the intake valve is closing,it is coming up on compression stroke.(Get the piston as close to the top as possible) Now a chiltons manual will show you where on the distributer cap number one plug wire goes, put in the distributer with the rotor on it and keep dropping it in(turning the gear a little) until the rotor is pointing to the direction the manual shows is number 1 on the Cap. Set timing,Your done
