Why did you do that, just remove the dizzy and line it up again.

Cool, got the car running now.  The problem I had is that the distributor is
frozen in place, so I had to take the t belt off again and turn the
intermediate sprocket until the rotor arm was lined up with the groove in
the dizzy body.  So the car starts and idles beautifully now, but timing is
definitely out as it runs out of steam at around 4000 rpm.
Any btdt on stuck dizzys?
This is engine with the dizzy on the side of the block.....
