Oh my... how "old school"!
Take a digital picture or two. ;-)

Remove the old cap and let it hang in place by the plug wires in the
same orientation it was mounnted.
Remove the old and install the new rotor. It is keyed so it will fit on
the distributor in one position only.

Mount the new cap in the correct orientation. It is also keyed and will
only fit in one position.

Move the wires from the old cap to the new one, one at a time.

If you do this it's pretty hard to screw up. But if you do, you will
have your pictures to remind of how it all once was.
