i like the idea of using the clamps to hold the sides into position ... great idea that i am sure will be copied by many forum members

The exhaust manifold came out and the 123 distributor went in. Now i need to find the appropriate coil.

Nice - I have to install new distributor and dreading finding TDC. I don't know why I find this specific task somewhat onerous, just a mental block. I've done it on other cars and its always just very futzy - have to look for specific marks, line things up, looking under the car, then down into engine bay, timing light, etc. Eh, I'm just psyching myself out.

No doubt, finding TDC was no fun
