Just dialed in Tim C's mechanical cam.   Centerline is 107*   With the dowel pin at STRAIGHT 12:00 and the adjustable cam gear zero'd out I was at 114.5*   That means had I not dialed in the cam it would have been a whopping 7.5* retarded!   :o   I can't see how anyone has their cam centerlined without adjusting it.   I'd highly consider getting some sort of gear to adjust the cam timing.   Shawns gear is TRICK! Worked like a charm adjusting it.   Took me a good 6 times to get it at 107
