swapping out cap and rotor, #1 on new cap doesn't match

[69redrunner]

I'm changing my cap and rotor and the stamped #1 on the cap seems to be one hole off of where the #1 plug wire is on the old cap. Should I pay any attention to the # stamped on the new cap or just put the wires where they were on the old one? That's what my inner voice is telling me to do. 1970 440 with a 73 Chrysler electronic ignition.

Got it. Has 2 #1's depending on rotation.

I would go with where the wires are on the old one. If you go with it being a hole off, you'll have to rotate the dizzy to realign the whole schbang. However one word of advice- make sure the notch on the new cap is lined up with the tab on the dizzy! Ask me how I know....

Nice! Glad to hear you got it figured out.

when in doubt, do what the voices in your head tell you to do

But what if those voices tell you to kill them all? ;-)

put it back on the way it came off

Unless it has 6 lugs on it or it should be a smooth transition.... but not all caps and rotors are interchangeable I like the brass Taylor ones.

Well... the voices said to do it............ surely the judge will have leniency?
