You need to correctly follow a procedure like the intake centerline method. All you check is that your degree wheel is in the correct position indicating TDC and that your intake centerline (max intake lift) is at the correct position relative (109 degrees in your case). I would expect the cam timing to be close or right on lining up the dots. All the cams I have done except the last one were within 1 degree (the last one from Oregon Cams had to be advanced 2 degrees). There are some good videos out there like this one
