First pics I've seen of the timing set. Those are BOTTOM OF THE BARREL. Cast iron sprockets for one and unlikely it has the good true roller IWIS chain, they got the imitation Taiwan version made version instead.

I will not use those here, and have seen quite a few lower sprockets split at the keyway as with cast iron each place you put a keyway is potential place to start a crack (weak).

No wonder you had issues getting the cam dialed in. Lessons in humility await those who try to degree camshafts with that junk.....FWIW......

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
