Default dizzy wont fit!!!, searched need help asap

like the topic says my dizzy will not fit into the head. I put gsr cams in a 00 B16a2 and this is my only problem.

to be more descriptive, its the stock b16 dizzy. the bottom 2 bolts are in but the top does not sit flush with the head... anyone have any idea or tips. need info asap please!!!

ive tried it both ways of course and nothing. i even tried a gsr dizzy and it sits the same way. could the cam be positioned wrong, because from what ive hear and read up on is that gsr cams fit in a b16 just fine

You have spun the key, right? Not the entire dizzy?
Always start with the simple stuff...

It should fit fine, yes.

The only way this can happen is if your keys arent lining up.
Inspect the cams, be sure nothing is in the way.

Have you tried fitting the dizzy with the valve cover and primary cam cap removed?
You could see where its binding then

so i talked to the handjob who sold me the cams, and he said when he had them he tried to put to dizz in backwards , he made 2 grooves where the dizz key goes in, grinded them off, and my dizzy fit in like a charm, thank you guys for your help, especially you pdiggity
