Crankgear positioning

good shot of an Advance and Retard mark setup on a crank gear. Notice difference in distance between A-A and R-R

If you want to take the position that the cam and the gear set are machined and marked perfectly... be my guest.

When you see a cam that was supposed to be ground +4, actually ground -6 and a timing set that on the 0 dot was actually -4... you get what you got coming to you for not verifying the cam installed centerline.

How come my car runs so badly... because the cam is in 10 degrees retarded instead of the desired 4 advanced!

It's not only the cam that's retarded

I resemble that remark
