Yeah, I ised a dial indicated and piston stop for TDC and then used dial and gauge on the intake valve to dial it in in to the correct degree it should be. And I've been talking with Hoos about it all and he suggested I put the clearance at .006 for both intake and exhaust as opposed to the site...

And I'd rather adjust or find a different ignition to fire when I need it to fire without having to modify it beyond the point of being able to run it stabily that keep adjusting my cam timing when it's dead on with the specs provided by mega cycle...

and as I said before the cam timing is directly on point sccording to the mega cycle time card and I still had to modify my ignition timing plate to fire... So that statement in this case isn't all that accurate...I had to cut notches way more into the timing plate, and advance it so far that...

And the bike won't be running until I get a spare 620$ for this ignition...

Although yes my cam timing was barely off that's not really the issue, and still wasn't really, it's my ignition plate not being able to advance enough to fire it. I had to completely modify my ignition timing to fire appropriately which I shouldn't have to do and I wouldn't be able to run it...

Well kind of.... I took the motor out and checked the cam along with TDC and I was about 5 degrees off so I pressed the sprocket off and put it back in and it was landing right on the money according to the mega cycle time card. So I pop it back in and go to kick it and nothing again. I advanced...

Right on! I appreciate it! Shit I just passed through Fredericksburg about a year ago heading to a chopper show in new braunfels... I'll be heading there again in less than two months so I need this sucker going so I can put miles on it before hand.

Man, there just isn't enough meat on it sticking out to get a good hold on it

I think if I can relocate one of the pins on my rod to 180 degrees and then move the rotor to the other keyhole that will get me close enough in the range, but the damn pins won't come out to relocate

Just rotated the rotor with the trigger magnets on it to the next keyhole and set the timing playe all the way advanced and it wants to go, it's igniting more but still no dice... And I can't advance it anymore because the circuit board is in the way... Otherwise I'd just seemed out more off the...

Well the rotor on the timing playe side has another keyhole behind it to rotate it about 40-45 degrees... But, I already tried that and it didn't do anything... Maybe it's that many degrees in the wrong direction?

Ok checked it, and the locating pin on the mega cycle on the advanced side is at like a dead 6 o'clock when the left hand side at TDC... Just eyeballing my Hughes cam, with the indexes marking straight up and down like it should be installed with the left cylinder at TDC, it looks like it's at...

Ill give that a try here in a few when I get back to the garage

Right on, I'll check it when I get back to the garage.

as opposed to who? You? The person that got mad even though he doesn't know how to read any of the responses showing that I did in fact take your advice and everybody elses and even posted that I did. then re explained everything I wrote in the opening statement because you didn't read it? I...

It shouldn't have been, I compared it to my 277 cam from Hughs and it looks like the same location...

I already did that haha that's how I know.... That's why I'm telling you that in Gary's second post its at TDC for the left cylinder... That's why the plugs aren't in it in the picture...

in Gary's first picture I stated that the left cylinder (riders left) was NOT at TDC... The pictures later on her posted ARE of it at TDC... And with a rephased cam/crank, you have to go by the left hand cylinder. For TDC.... And why you follow all the steps... The second pictures Gary posted of...

Yeah, That's where the pin lands for the LH cylinder to be at TDC, and that's how you install everything on there cam and ignition wise is with the left hand cylinder at TDC...on the Hughs write up, he just moved it to the top for easy install reasons because it's easier to keep the pin in the...

I can take pictures later of it at TDC...I'm not at my garage anymore
