YAWN!!!!!
Here's the guys second post.
"Thanks for the replies so far...I guess to back up, this motor had been running just fine - but we cracked the cases, so it had to come all the way apart. I didn't really pay attention to the cams at disassembly...assuming they'd be normal, I guess.
So I have to believe that they're degreed correctly...just trying to make sure I know what I'm doing with the markings. "
The motor was running fine regardless of cam spec.
Cams haven't been moved on the sprockets.
Simply confirm the dot is the timing mark.
JOB DONE.

I noticed there seems to be less compression using the kick starter by hand now. I'll recheck the timing. I cleaned up my thread and moved the adverce posts. Please carry on..

Doesn't run like it has bent exhaust valves.
