Degreeing a Cam vs. Lining Up the Dots

Well, as much trouble as you're having, the only thing I can suggest now is to round up some local help, a mechanic friend. Hell, it doesn't matter if he only works on Lancia 'er somethin'. Just get a "second set of eyes" over there that can check your work, some obvious "doh" that you might be overlooking.

I'm not cam expert, but I've stuffed a few into engines, here and there. When I find cam grinders who don't want to put out specs in a standardized or at least popularized form, I get irritated.
