Stop in for a cup of coffee

i think this one is likely okay, I found a roll pin that will fit snug in the cam dowel slot, gonna locktite it in and then bolt everything back up. see what happens
Your cam has a roll pin in it?

How could the timing sets be the same and your cam has a locator pin?

Interesting, I see pin and key styles pictured on the net. What does your cam gear have?
