If you have the engine torn down far enough to remove the cam, If the head is off, center the #1 piston at top dead center, then, the camshaft timing, there are two marks on the gear, one for the crank, and one for the distributor. Best advice for which timing marker is which, and knowing its correct, is to install #1 lifters in the block, they both should be down, or valves closed, if you have the piston all the way at the top, the cam in the right place, the markers should be darn near close enough to recognize as to where, and which one is which. Look up at where the distributor would mount up, there should be a mark there, and one at the crank. As for the mechanical advance, and timing, follow the book specs on the timing, and make sure the advance mechanism is not stuck, or sticking. If they are, that robs the throttle response from the engine idle to full throttle. Hope this helps a bit. ChadS
