Timing changed after Cap + rotor swap?!

NO

You are changing the relationship of the reluctor and the pickup.

Simple question, what triggers/signals the coil? The rotor or the reluctor wheel?

If you believe the rotor does the triggering, why must some people do rotor phasing? Hmmm????

Turing the distributor does NOT change the relationship of the rotor/reluctor.

It changes the relationship between the rotor and the post on the cap.

The reluctor is fixed. That's why the make tools to bend the reluctor. To change timing to an individual cylinder.
