I found when I fitted the scortcher to mine I had to keep fitting and removing the dizzy and turning the shaft one tooth at a time to chase the oil pump drive aroud to the right position I hope that makes sense alternativly a long screwdriver can be used to rotate the oil pump drive

And if you are still running a coloum shift it is a fine line in getting the modual housing to clear the gear selectors while shifting (allowing for engine movment under load) and clearance between the side plate and vacume advance unit (it is possable I was being over cautious
