Jim,

certainly the best way but certainly not the easiest is to remove the fuel 
system and the intake manifold! the distributer is right in front of you 
then! if that is not a possibility (daily driver?) then you just have to be 
really careful and double-jointed.

personally i would take the opportunity to take the fuel system out and the 
intake manifold. then you can get it all glassbeaded and painted, and clean 
your engine up while you are in there. that's what i did last winter, and 
i'm glad i did it. only it was the other way around. i already had the fuel 
system and manifold out, so i decided to do the water pump and the ignition 
system while i was in there.......
