Big Block Gear Drive On A Slant?

Rusty give me the model # of the timing set and let me check it out. For all I have ever seen cam gears are always double the count of the crank gears. A 2:1 ratio, whether its chain, gear(s) or belt. I am pretty sure timing would be off more and more for every crank revolution it makes.

I quick test would be turn the crank a couple of times and see if it lines up again. Or let the masses decide, (that you call the drive through). lol
This is it. CAT GD440.
