The dist. will go on any number of ways there are gear teeth. You may have
to turn the rotor by hand a little as the distributor slides into the head
(the rotor will turn a little as you insert the dizzy, the gears are not
straight cut). Get the crank to the correct TDC point, then mess around
and get the dizzy in the right spot so that the rotor is facing staright
forward. You'll get it eventually. It's not a necessity for the engine to
run, but it might as well be assembled correctly to begin with, eh? :)
Take care,
