If you reread the problem you'll see it has nothing to do with the distributor fitment.

The phasing issue comes about from the rotor misaligned to the lead posts at the trigger point, hence the relationship between the reluctor and the rotor is wrong, no amount of "turning and/or refitting" the dizzy will fix it.
