Is this distributor off one tooth?

I was switching the distributor to the 280ZX Turbo one and I cant quite get it to the 11:25 that I am seeing on the internet. What I have is almost 11:25 but not quite. It seems I either get this or 12:00 for the shaft. I am asking also because on the diagram from the FSM, it shows the rotor pointing slightly ahead of one of the internal distributor screws while mine is pretty much pointing right at it.

 

Am I a tooth off or is it fine?

Looks like you are off a tooth - need to go one more in the clockwise direction:
