I installed the cam and timing set "dot to dot" Then I turned the engine over to get both at 12 o'clock. But then I had something tell me that timing was off when I was doing my valve lash. I verified TDC and found the timing mark on my balancer didn't match. I have turned the engine over many times now.
I tried playing with the timing too. Going from 0 to 20 degrees. I also have a flat tappet cam and don't want to run the risk of wiping the lube off my cam.
Thanks! I feel like its always best to talk these kind of things out.
