travis then just follow Mikes advice starting from where he states 'NEXTUP' down near bottom of his last thread.
its simple really- i know all you did was move all the wires over one tower in/on the dist.
so be certain#8 cyl is tdcc of compression stroke, ascertain harmonic balancer is on/aligned with tdc MARKS, and you had air pissing outa #8 cyl[pull plug and crank starter -youll hear air hiss outa that cyl.

anyhow having that accomplished -look at dist, pull cap, notice where the rotor is pointing, put cap on and which ever tower the rotor is pointing to, put that wire on #8 plug, then clockwise
[ i think it goes that way-twist rotor, which ever way it moves with tension is the way the dist rotor turns when engine is running[or crank the engine and watch the rotor turn then youll know for sure,works on any engine].
work around the dist towers in /with correct firing order from the#8 cyl 84365721
