Parts did not show up for the other work I had scheduled today. That allowed me to do some more work on my engine today.
The cam bolts came in today so I installed them today I still have to have them machined so they will clear the cam button. At this point I decided to degree in the camshaft. The cam card wanted the center line @107. The cam checked out at 111.5 CL with timing gears on the "0". I advanced it to 107.5 CL using the advance +4 keyway. Rechecked and it came right in at 107.5 that is as close as I can get at this point. Next week I will check my valve to piston clearance.
Picture showing the 1 piston .010 in the hole. Another picture showing the piston stop I use to setup my degree wheel. Another couple of pictures showing the dial indicator that I used to degree the camshaft. Just for everyone's reference cam degrees at .050 before max lift was 65 and at .050 after max lift was 150. 150+65=215. 215 divided by 2 = 107.5. Hopefully these pictures may help someone in the future.
