Probably not a bad idea for the distributor. Make sure you mark it before you take it out!

I just put my tranny in not long ago and used a ratchet strap to get it in ( and brute He-Man frustration). Should have waited for my buddy to get there with the jack.

It is best to have somone to run the jack while you try to start the threads. It is a very fine adjustment sometimes to just get those bolts started. I was lucky enough to have a shallow ratchet that fit easily into the cramped space. However, like I said before, make sure the holes on your mounts are the same. The parts guys, in their regular fashon, gave me mounts with different bolt holes on each one.
