Timing question
So I pulled the timing cover today. The aluminum cam gear and nylon teeth are indeed still in there. I have a double roller replacement to go in. Here's where I start getting a little confused. My stock timing chain set up is 12 and 12. Cam index hole to the left. The double roller replacement is set up for 12 and 6 with the cam index hole to the right. I have the right valve cover off to help verify TDC. I am at TDC and both marks are at 12&12. Distributor rotor is point at #6. What am I missing? I've always assumed on new timing sets, pips went to pips.....but for this to bolt on, I'm going to have to keep 12 & 12 on the new set.....the rotor pointing at 6 is what's throwing me off....I thought it should be pointing towards #1? Am I over thinking this?
