Book says timing on my 1988 CVH should be +8° BTDC. I put a light on it and it is off the chart, I should estimate 30-40° advanced. The distributor is full moved to the stops clockwise, moving it toward the proper settings motor dies and will not re-start. I am aware that the TR powered cars it is possible to install the crankshaft pully incorrectly, but this looks to be keyed and fault proof.

I should add that someone before me has installed the Burton Power CVH22 cam. The cars has absolutely no guts at anything below 2500rpm, after that is screams, Just trying to make it an easy driver around town. Is there a way to tune this for a little more low-end torque?
