Default Thunderbolt IV & Crane Box question

I have the T-Bolt IV distributor and a Crane HI-6M box. The place I got the box from included a 35 degree phased rotar, for a fee of course. The metal wheel is so far off that it rubs on the sensor in the distributor So, I tried moving my old rotor on the wheel 35 degrees, and didn't do much better

Question is ..... Anyone know of a place that sells/supplies rotors for the T-Bolt IV distributor, already set up/degreed for the Crane box. ?

Thanks

I drilled my own several years back. Use the template found in the PDF doc from Crane. Center punch and start with small drill bit. I don't recall it being an issue. Once it is done you can reuse the wheel, it is a non wear item.

Tried it again. I took a wheel from an old rotor and adhered the template to the wheel with a couple light shots of gasket cement/sealer. Used a punch and drilled as you suggested. It worked out pretty well, but the wheel is +,- .010 off center. I can correct as needed with a small fine rat tail file.
