318 LA rebuild after losing a valve seat

I had this bad feeling when others were recommending Righty Tighty go to the 4° cam advance on his first time engine build. Too many variables for him for things to go wrong.

Should have gone with the single keyway roller chain and gear set, set straight up. Dots set to 12 O'clock on the cam gear and 12 O'clock on the crank gear.

Drop the distributor in with # 1 up on compression.

Would have been done by now so he could get onto more important things.
