I can not match up what it used to be with being at TDC even
Are you sure you are on the compression stroke and not on the exhaust stroke? If you have the upper valve cover off, is the #1 intake valve loose? If the valve is tight, then you are on the exhaust stroke, and the rotor will be pointing the wrong direction.

I assume you have not removed the distributor? The rotor has a notch in it and you shouldn't be able to install the rotor at any position - it only goes on one way.
