Problem installing timing set

Had a problem installing my timing set today. This was the set that came with my TFS H/C/I kit (dynaroll set). When I opened the set I noticed it has two allen head screws (instructions said to countersink the thrust plate bolt holes and use these screws so they fit below the surface of the plate) and a bronze washer, both which were not on the stock timing set. Confused, I called Trick Flow the next day and they said they had never heard of having to countersink the thrust plate, which made sense since the bronze washer was not hitting the stock bolts on the thrust plate (the reason for countersinking and using the allen head screws). But they made it sound like I still needed to use the bronze washer.

Anyways, I went to put the timing set on today, with the bronze washer, and after torquing the cam sprocket bolt I could not turn the engine over! So I removed the cam sprocket bolt and pulled the set back off. It appeared the bronze washer was too thick and was being squashed between the timing set and the thrust plate. So I took the bronze washer off and installed the timing set without it and the engine turns over just fine. I pulled on the cam sprocket to see if I had any play and I have a VERY slight amount of play (about .0004), which should be fine.

I'm just not very confident that I put everything together right, especially since there was nothing in the instructions that said you shouldn't use the bronze washer for certain applications. The only thing I know is I can't use the washer that came with the set because it is just a little to thick and will hold the engine back from turning.

Here are some pics to make what I'm talking about a little clearer (maybe).

Here's the bronze washer included with the set:
