| Well guys,
I am just about at wits end, try ing to degree in this cam and set up 
the cam advance.
Let's see, i am  rebuilding a 1275 with new kent 266 kit and new 
rollmaster timing set with a choice of keyways to provide 2, 4 or 6 
degree of advance or retard. Instructions are minimal saying only that 
keyways to the 'left' will give cam advance.
A call to David Anton and he says set it to 104 degrees..., just to 
slip the chain one tooth in the opposite direction for each keyway you 
move ( he was not sure if it was one tooth or two).
  So now I am beyond confused having futzed with the degree wheel and 
clock gauge all afternoon.
So far the only thing that comes out correctly is when I use the center 
keyway (no advance), I get 110 degrees for the cam max lift.
  So, in theory 2 keyways over to the 'left' and then slip the chain 2 
(or is it 4) links back to the right and I should be good...
nope,   ...         not yet
anyone been thru this recently?
thanks
Bill
