Default Timing a B engine with A Distributor

..
Have been checking the website but can't find what I am looking for.

How do you time a Model B engine with the "B" timing cover and the Model A distributor with modern point setup.
Car runs good on the top side of the quadrant (until 9 o'clock position)
then runs very bad towards the bottom end.
Timing was set as you do on the Model A but "B" is 19 degrees BTDC
Would prefer not to change the timing cover.

See pictures of timing cover. (one is from the Vince website)

Thanks.
