I went through this when I tried to put in points & condenser & clean up & grease my mag. Take off the cap & rotor, and you will see a small gear cover with two screws. When you take it off, you will see a large bronze gear, and a small steel gear. You probably have those gears meshed one tooth off. Pull the bronze gear off it"s shaft, and reposition it one tooth either way from where it is and try that. Even thought #1 is at tdc, and the timing mark is at 6:00 position, you might be firing way early or late, and the spark is jumping the gap between the rotor and the pins in the cap, causing it to run rough. In other words, the mag is firing before or after the brass strip on the rotor is exactly lined up with a pin in the cap.
