You put a remanufactured Vortec 5.7 motor in your 96 Chevy K1500 How do you install the distributor so that the timing is set right you know the computer does the timing?

I haven't done a computer controlled one, but you'd need to get the engine turned around so that #1 is up for compression, then drop in the distributor so that the rotor is pointing towards the #1 tower on the cap.
You may need to access a factory service manual for your vehicle to see if there is any special instructions for this process.

How do you reset the timing on a 4.3 engine?
It depends on what you did and what year. If its a vortec, and you didn't pull the distributor, all you have to do is make sure the marks on the timing gears are lined up and your good to go. The computer does the rest. Some times you have to reset the computer though. If its older, there's a wire under the pass side dash. You have to unplug it. Time the engine with a timing lite, and then plug it back in and the computer takes care of the rest. The wire should be brown and white with a single connector. (If you pulled the distributor on the vortec, you have to take it to a shop and have them put it on the computer).

Remove the distributor and set it up in a press or vise of some sort. Press out the roll pin that retains the gear and install new gear. This would be the time to use shims above the gear to minimize end play.
