An incorrectly installed cam can be 180 degrees out. Just put it there then put chain on.

He wrote that he turned the cam shaft 180 degrees, with the sprocket removed. That's what I was replying to.

Funny, in retro I see my mistake on what Leon replied to (Post #56). 180 on the camshaft is 360 on the crankshaft as I've noticed every time I adjust my valves. Turning the camshaft with the head on is a no-no though.

$5,000 for a 1978 2+2 with an extra low compression engine is pretty good money.

The good ol Z sold for $5,000. Thank you all for your most excellent help. Brad.

Some good news for sure. Take care out there in Texas.
