There is a thick ~3/16" plate with countersunk holes (3 I think) that
centralize the dist.

Looks like, by the time you add the face plate and the clamp it should be
pretty close.

A small question here..:

My engine is finally painted with the gearbox painted and I tried to mount
the distributor, but is does not want to sit all the way in. There is about
5mm gap:

Anyone has any idea what the problem is?

It was rebuild by Advanced Distributors.
