Default MSD Distributor install HELP NEEDED ASAP

I have a quick question for those with more expertise than I obviously have. I'm installing a MSD Pro-Billet Distributor in my 93 GT. It's replacing the stock one. I made a mark where the rotor was pointing on the old one, and the new MSD just will not line up with that mark. It's either to the left of it or to the right depending which tooth on the gear I drop it on. How do I correct this? I'm in need of quick advice if anyone's out there reading this. I'm also by myself working on it, so I'll need a fix that doesn't involve a second person. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The mark is useless, get it close.
Really it don't matte, set the timing and tighten the hold down bolt and go.
