If I recall correctly...

there is a splined sleeve that connects the injection pump drive on the engine to the input shaft on the Bosch pump. A variation in the timing can be accomplished there, IF there is not a "key" spline that allows alignment in only one configuration.

The downside is that you will have to pull the pump to see if this is, or is not possible.

Good luck,

JR
