Some people use a large pry bar to flex the firewall enough to remove and replace the distributor as an assembly. I prefer to remove the cap and rotor. Be sure to unplug the Hall effect while the distributor cap is still in place. I know that you have a new distributor, but the cap helps keep the Hall effect connector in the distributor when unplugging the chassis side connector.
