318 V8 running sickly

Hey Dartswinger70 -
I have not rebuilt this engine - the only thing I had to do was take the intake off and have it cleaned because it was plugged with carbon - I have not replace anything internal - checked compression on each cylinder and right at 125 to 150 lbs of pressure and I had a new oil pump installed since the pan gasket was trash. So to answer you question - yes - it still has the crappy cam gear ......... I was wondering if the timing had jumped .............. had a car do that once years ago .............. I will try all the suggestions in this chain above and hope it's not the timing gear or chain .......... gezzzzzzzzzzzz - I hope it not that !

thanks man !
Mike
