So after pulling the cap off after getting her to TDC after blowing out, she was 180 out, I put everything the way they belong and tried it and guess what? she fired up. GOD that took forever. Now to put the valve covers back on and get her running without spewing oil everywhere. I greatly appreciate the help geo1 you've been the greatest help. Ill post back if I have any other issues.

I'm sorry I haven't been on here in a while, been busy with work and the holidays and working on vehicles, but I just wanted to let everyone know that helped me on this that I am grateful for all the help. The truck still has a couple of issues but I have to post in a different section of the forums for the help. Thanks again.

Good evening Im having an issue with the truck once more. I took the truck to work a couple of days, I had the distributor loosened so I could adjust it and the bracket backed out a little bit and the distributor popped up so much that the oil pump wasn't running, now when I am driving the vehicle under load it rattles like the timing is off a couple of teeth, could the timing be off again? I need this truck running 100% so I need some help. Once I got the timing correct the first time it wasn't rattling any longer, but since the distributor got pushed up it started rattling again. What should I do? Should I remove the distributor and reset the timing? Any help is appreciated.
