Can't get timing correct, either too far advanced or too late. I have 2 correct 1953 distributors which are unique to 53, they are identical. I have front timing cover off and timing marks are OK according to Motors manual. Could the gear count on rear of cam be the problem? I do not have the cam out of motor, can't see any part numbers on front of cam and don't know anything about this cam.
