Question for the OP here.
Your rotating the distributor and having it run ruff and have the rpm drop is a sure fire sign that your turning the thing the wrong way!
The rotor in these motors spin counter clockwise, so to advance the timing you need to spin the distributor towards the driver side of the car.
If your going things right you should be able to rotate it far enough that the starter will not be able to crank the motor over.
