The timing marks should be together between the cam and crank. So all you did was timed it 180 out.

It barely runs, pops out the exhaust on decel, won't idle. I have moved the timing all over the place from staright up to 33 degress at 3k with no difference in running characteristics. I am sure that all the plugs are firing and the valves are adjusted properly so am at my wits end on this one. Now, the only thing I can figure that I messed up on the build was that I set the timing marks in line top of each gear at TDC firing instead of the bottom of cam gear to top of crank gear. So my question is: will setting the timing marks the way I did manifest itself as I have noted above. I really don't want to rip it all back apart but will if i have to. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Nico Over Va. Beach, Va. ---- Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
