Default replacing distributor cap and rotor, will timing change?

I just changed my wires, dizzy cap and rotor. I made sure the new rotor went back on in the same place old rotor was at. Will my timing remain the same or will it have changed? Thx

Stays the same. I would probably check it anyways if you are doing a tune up.

I belive you can only put it back on one way. Either case ive never heard of it changing by doing such.
