I've had my distributorin/ out on mine a few times and the only real time I had dramas was either A: I was 180deg out when I re-installed it and,
B: reset all timing marks after fitting cam, but left all the spark leads as they were. I had marked them. Consequently I was 1 cylinder off in the timing as the PO had phased it that way so the vac advance cannister was in a better position to time it. Rechecked it and put leads in correct order and was fine. Flattened the battery trying though
