back in my dirt track engine building days we ran so many cheeting combinations we would machine off the stock collat and add a slip collat to a stock dist..may be your solution if you have access to a lathe or know someone..machine it down,install the slip collar,install the dist,slide collsr all the way down and tighten it and its allen head set screws and use a .020 gasket which will act as the .010 to .015 that the oil pump needs to do its job when compressed..
