Yes guys I know that degree the Cam is the very best way to put it in perfectly but thousands of us DYIs have put them in straight up as we call it and have done fine there has been a few failures I had one the timing gear was marked wrong I put it in 3 Teeth off. It ran like hell for 17 miles and then ate a valve. But back to the presence this Cam has been in for four years and ran fine so I don’t think it is initial set up problem. And I don’t think I can degree it while the motor is setting in the car if I have to pull this motor it will be a completely different set up anyway. So something happened when I bent that distributor shaft be it mechanical or something I’m missing in the ignition and I I appreciate all of your guys suggestions and I am trying to do them
