I just installed a Schrick 284/272 and set it to what I think is supposed to be the TDC center position based on the German catalog. The #1 intake valve is open 2.2 mm and the #1 exhaust is open 1.7 mm (as closely as I could measure). In this position ,the stock cam gear is retarded approximately 4.5 degrees. Is this typical? Did Dr. Schrick just put the dowel pin hole in the wrong position? Am I doing something wrong?
I was really hoping not to have to spend another couple hundred dollars for an adjustable cam sprocket. Arghh!
