Just as a comment: I've never set TDC on a small block chevy at 12 o'clock and 12 o'clock, but I seem to remember that on at least one 6-cylinder back in the day. It's always 6 o'clock on the cam for a SBC. I know times are changing but... The good news is, if your engine is 180 out, all you have to do is pull the distributor up and rotate the shaft 180 degrees.
Ok I wont worry about the slack on the chain if that is normal.
