It is what it is....... You degreed it...... You triple checked it.

You're good to go.

What you found is exactly why they should always be checked.


If you feel like you need to prove it to yourself one more time, degree the exhaust lobe.
It should now be at 110.

Fwiw, I don't really rely on the cam card info to determine if the cam is in correct by the open/close points.
I use the degree wheel to determine the open/close points, then calculate the actual duration @.050, then use that figure to come up with the theoretical c/l of the lobe...... Then move it to where I want it(if necessary).
Ideally, my measured duration @.050 number and the cam card agree with each other, but they don't always....... Especially with rollers.

I guess what I'm saying is, I don't just use one reference point on the cam card(in your case, intake opening) to determine if the cam is where I want it.
