Default Modern distributor

Hi all,
I bought a modern distributor from Snyder for my Model A. When I fitted it the rotor arm was pointing at number 2 (according to the numbers on the cap).
The engine is at top dead centre on number one cylinder (confirmed with the TDC bolt and visually checking the position of number 1 cylinder and valves.
Is it possible to remove the top centre screw and rotate the cam that operates the points to align correctly with number 1 on the cap?
