RE: not flooding anymore, but...

["Joe Doty" <rocco2nr@hotmail.com>]

We checked the cam-to-crank timing by putting a rod down the #1 spark plug 
hole and seeing where it topped out, and it was right when the cam lined up 
with the mark on the valve cover.  Plus there is another mark on the crank 
pulley that lines up with another one on the block, this came out right too. 
  I came to the conclusion that the flywheel wasn't keyed (more than 1 way 
to put it on), and that I had put it on wrong.
Thanks anywho
