Just a quick recap of my situation:
Got engine from parts car. Engine was supposedly running when car was wrecked. It appears timingmark plate was placed incorrectly, but as engine was running in this state, I believe that Cam timing is correct. I checked compression, and all cylinders are >160psi. Even after start/run there is no cam/piston contact; I checked compression again to be sure.
Transplanted engine into rallyX. For this I used MY original CAS, throttle-body, alternator, fuel rail & injectors - all known good.
I have spark & have checked wire order. I have good fuel pressure. The car will start, but runs crappy. Vacuum gauge show early timing, but adjusting CAS to either limit improves or makes worse the behaviour but does not totally clear the problem. I don't know what else to look for or test.
Help please!
