Thanks Don that is what I thought but wanted a second opinion. I'll look elsewhere for my problem.

Remember that the gear on the crank rotates twice for every one rotation of the gear on the cam. Either way, the mark at the bottom or the top of the cam gear, is right when the mark on the crank gear is at the top. The piston is still at Top Dead Center (TDC). (Of course, it's hard to tell if you got it right when they are 180 degrees apart)contentAkron Don Gallimore ----- Original Message ----All, just finished putting Eddy Victor Heads ported to Max wedge size, Indy dual plane intake, Crane Hydraulic Roller in the winter top end overhaul of the 440 in my 63 330. It barely runs, pops out the exhaust on decel, won't idle.

I am surethatall the plugs are firing and the valves are adjusted properly so am atmywits end on this one. Now, the only thing I can figure that I messed uponthe 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 myquestionis: will setting the timing marks the way I did manifest itself asI havenoted above. I really don't want to rip it all back apart but will ifi haveto. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Nico OverVa.Beach, Va.----Please address private mail -- mail of interest toonly one person -- directly to that person.
