Yes, cyl. #1 is nearest the radiator. I have a few more questions.
Are the points in it, the ones that were badly burned..?? If so, a new set could make a world of difference.
What did you set the points at..?? They should be .020. That would make a BIG difference, throwing the dwell off. Dwell will change the timing, but timing will not change the dwell. Might be an idea to invest in a new set. Get a decent set, like OEM's, or from NAPA, and don't go the cheap route. The rub blocks on the cheap set wear, or partially bend way sooner than a good set.
One other thing. Check the plug wires, that you didn't pull the end that connect to the plug, back into the boot. They should have a light snap to them when you put them on the plugs. Depends on how tight they are I guess. And copper core wires are the best to use on them. My one C's set has been on since '75, and the other ones since the late 80's.
And if that is the cap that came on it, look inside at the lugs, and look for a carbon buildup from ionization. If the lugs are aluminum, they will get a whitish/green deposit on them. If brass, it will be a dark colored. This buildup can be scraped off with you pen knife. I can tell when my Su C's get that buildup without even looking. They will get a blubber type miss to them, similar to what you're getting. I've been using the same cap,and scraping it for 25 years now. Still runs great.
Video plays fine now. Sounds like you're close, but just not getting good fire. Never thoughto ask if you checked the color of the spark. It should be a blueish/white color. If it's a faint yellowish orange, that is a sign of weak spark. And a weak spark will cause a poor fuel ignition.
