Manifold tubes are plastic?!? and timing help

[lexan_122874 at hotmail.com (Lexan Blanchard)]

I have dial-up (and really slow dial-up at that, gotta love livin' country 
style), so I can't send a pic of anything, but here is what it is.

the cam dot is in the correct position and yields the distributor in the 
right position (I did adjust the wires before my last email.  they were more 
like 1,3,2,4).  The flywheel doesn't look TDC to me (the "0" is just to the 
right of the little pointer on the casing).  do i need to be concerned of 
flywheel not TDC, or am i wrong and it is TDC?  could 2 wires being in wrong 
position really keep me from starting?

can't really test until i get the stinking injector insert, as it really 
isn't even seating now (unless I hear a go-ahead from you just for testing, 
no driving on bad insert).

you guys have no idea how frustrating and fun this is, having no idea how to 
make a car go.  but, i really am having a good time with it, and can't wait 
to get her on the road.  this car is way sexy, and between its good looks 
and my planned vanity plate (either ROCCGRL or ROCCSTAR), i WILL be the envy 
of all others on the road (yeah right).

Thanks for all your help!  I hope it works out and I can drive her to Cincy. 
  If not, a back up has presented itself (thanks Allyn).
