Maybe a $17 timing set from a warehouse that would close soon after they sold it was funky and the dots were wrong? Or the cam was ground wrong.? Hang your hat on that rather than thinking that all the mechanics working on the engine were wrong. |

I've tried following this for over 450 replies. I do recall two things by the OP.
36 degrees total timing and never uses a timing light, times by ear. A degree wheel and confirmed TDC would put the guesswork on that cam to an end. I wish you luck and success. |

I'm going to settle for the piston stop I made earlier and a marked up balancer. To each his own. |

If the cam will be a Voodoo 703 then the intake lobe should very close to .075 lobe lift at TDC when installed, maybe a few thou more.

Degree wheel can be used in the car, just a little more tedious and time consuming. I've done several "in car" cam swaps using a degree wheel. Everything you have to remove out of the way to slide the cam out gives you the room needed to use the degree wheel. Just sucks laying over the fenders trying to use it.

"Caught the order before it left the warehouse and changed to this cam."
And with the cam you will need to upgrade the valve springs. And yes, I know I already mentioned that. .
