The camshaft should be degree'd to 106 ICL per the manufacturers recomendations.

It is NOT a good ide to simply advance the cam and put the engine in service. Degree the camshaft with the timing set dot to dot and compare to the manufactures recommendations, then move it if/as needed to get it to 106ICL or very close to that number.

This is an area of engine building that should get considerable time to make sure it is right. I see WAY too many folks having all sorts of issues, including not making nearly the power they think they should be, and it starts with putting the cam in the correct position during engine building......Cliff
