I don't see a response to this part of your quesiton. If you are sure you have the engine at TDC, your drive slots are not in the right place. They should be 35 degrees above horizontal, roughly the 2-8 o'clock position.
The drive gears for the governor have timing marks but can be misengaged to put the lugs in a variety of wrong positions. With the regular battery ignition units, the distributor can be installed to make up for the problem. A magneto can not.
