Here is the installation instructions for the Edelbrock Performer aluminum intake manifold for a Ford 351M/400...hope it helps out. http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive_new/misc/tech_center/install/2000/2171.pdf
Only if the cross member is in the way.
To use a timing light on a 1978 Chevette with a 1.6L engine, first ensure the engine is at operating temperature and the ignition is set to the desired timing specification. Connect the timing light's clamp to the number one spark plug wire and attach the power leads to the battery (positive to positive and negative to ground). Start the engine and aim the timing light at the crankshaft pulley or timing marks on the engine, observing the timing marks to check if the ignition timing aligns with the specified setting. Adjust the distributor if necessary to achieve the correct timing.
improper cam timing, improper ignition timing, lack of fuel, lack of spark, lack of compression, faulty starter, etc. there are 1000000 different answers to your question. please be more specific.
all big blocks , 351m,400m, 460 and I think the 351w. I'm sure of the smaller ones 351 and 400's as I've had trucks with them.

To time a 1978 Suzuki GS750, first ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for the first cylinder. Remove the timing cover to access the timing mark on the crankshaft and align it with the pointer on the engine case. Use a timing light connected to the first cylinder's spark plug wire and adjust the ignition timing using the advance mechanism until the timing mark on the flywheel aligns with the specified timing mark on the engine at the correct RPM. Finally, recheck the timing at higher RPMs to ensure it advances properly.
The timing marks can assist a mechanic in setting the engine timing. The number one timing marks will set the number one piston so that the number one valve can be properly adjusted.

The van should have electronic ignition, resistors are built into the ignition module and cannot be serviced. The module is located on the left inner fender below the master cylinder.
12 degrees before top dead center.
