you don't have to remove the cam gear, it will stay on without the key. in any case it's easy enough to check.
Rebuilt head, car not starting, help!

they are, but the cam gear fits over the cam with it's own key that will hold it in place.Comment

Originally posted by NickPIt sounds like a timing / firing order issue.
The firing order is 1 - 5 - 3 - 6 - 2 - 4
Also you could have the motor 180 degrees out; take out plug #1 and turn the motor until you feel the compression, make sure at this point that the rotor's pointing at the #1 cylinder.Comment

its impossible to be 180 out... cant do it... unless u cram teh cam wheel or crank wheel on wrong... but there is a male peg on the back of both that goes into the cam or crank... if that is filed off i guess its possible, but unless the peg is gone... the wheel will be correct or tilted to one direction.
EDIT: that is if your marks are lined up... if the timing marks are 180 out its totally possible...

are you using the bently manual? in the bently it says to line up a mark on the crank with a mark on the case, but in the bently its the WRONG mark. There is another mark on the crank that you are supposed to line up. one of the instructers at school was having similar issues. dbl check and make sure you have the correct timing mark lined up with the case.

Not sure, i do know that there are two marks on the crank there, and its the other one that the bently says it is. my bently is down in the garage, and im too lazy/naked to go get it.
