That is correct. Now go back to paragraph 10 if the first article you posted. After paragraph six, it leads you to paragraph ten to time the distributor drop in proceedure and states to remove the #1 plug and bump until you feel the compression stroke of the piston in #1. That should point out out that the timing of the dots being together are really not for #1, rather #6. If this proceedure is done with the timing cover off just to be sure where everything falls into respective alignment, you will notice both dots at 12 o'clock and #1 is ready for the distributor. Dollars to dounts, he'll re-drop the distributor and it will fire. (Don't ask me why GM decided to do it that way, maybe a bunch of right brain thinkers on a Friday afternoon when the whistle was blowing)
