just rebuilt runs bad

I sent the machine shop the picture of the mancini timing chain set. I also tried unsuccessfully to call him last week. Here's his response:

Hey Dan.
December 13 TH Verizon was supposed to set up high speed Internet in my business but instead they knocked out my phones for a whole week...sorry you couldn't get through. As far as the marks on your timing chain, your cam was degreed in according to the cam card. I can install your cam by degreeing it even if there were no marks on the gears at all.
I am in the middle of something that I have to focus on until about noon tomorrow. Give me a call sometime tomorrow afternoon when you get time and will talk.
Thanks

So I'll call him tomorrow and see what he says. He's been in business for over 30 years. I hope I'm not a sucker but I still trust the guy. We'll see.

Thanks.
