Mine was the same when i got it and i thought the same as you, just make sure that number one piston is on TDC with both valves closed and firing fit dizzy in the same way as the old one now look at the rotor button with the cap slightly lifted to see which one is firing so you make that one number one and go in the firing order from there.Once you have fired it up and every thing checks out ok, put a timing light on and adjust to your preference. Remember if the rotor is not exactly lined up dont freak as you can move dizzy CLOCKWISE or ANTICLOCKWISE.
