***Side note, if setting TDC to stab a distributor, when TDC on #1 is up, the distributor will drop right in with the rotor pointing towards #1.  Also note, if using the old school way of pressure release on #1 with plug removed, using your finger or listening for the air to escape the plug boss, you may realize the distributor will not set in completely.  If this occurs, keep rotating the crank to the next round of pressure to escape the plug boss.
