Did you put engine on TDC before you remove the chain. If not you need to do that and then line up the sprockets Cam and Crank, makes sure rotor is pointing to no.1 on the distributor cap tower.

Set the engine to top dead center if it was not set before the timing chain was removed. Align the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets, and confirm the distributor rotor points to the No. 1 tower on the distributor cap.
