Get it to TDC
Use a sharpie and make a mark on the dizzy pointing perfectly straight to the front of the car
Remove everything (basic)
Clean up all mating surfaces
Apply ultra grey around the water jacket ports on the heads and let it get tacky
Lay the gaskets in place then put a thick bead of ultra grey across the front and rear china walls and run it up a little bit onto the ends of the gaskets
Let it set up a few minutes then carefully lower the intake into place
Torque the intake down in 2 steps to proper torque specs starting in the center and criss crossing
Reinstall the dizzy, carb, thermostat housing etc etc
Come back to the car the next day and fill up the coolant and fire it up
Set the timing and burp the cooling system and you are all done
