Yes I did, and that was it..
That gear set had symbols instead of +/- numbers.

The ownner wasn't local and I didn't get to see directions till he came to pick the car up. Three keyways, I think, but multiple dots on gear teeth to set cam timing several different ways. Like 2° to 4° in either direction. The combination that got used during build had the cam way off. Like some 30° crank off.

Engine ended up being a screamer once I got it straightened out.

I figured out how a person could get the timing set exactly how it was on my engine.

There's a dot above the crank keyway. He lined up that dot with the dot on the cam gear.
