I replaced my head gaskets on my car, took the entire top end off but left the distributor in place because I didnt want to mess with the timing. Threw everything back on and when I tried to start it, the timing was too far advanced for the car to even start. Didnt have a timing light but I had to rotate the distributor almost an inch just to get it to run right again and idle ok (its idling 500 rpm higher now too and I didnt mess with the carb at all). What could have caused this since I didnt mess with the timing at all?
Its a procharged 393, msd 6al2 programmable box, msd distributor. Left the battery disconnected during the week it was apart (dont know if that matters at all)
