The block is older. Engine was rebuilt about 5 years ago and has 16,000 miles since then. Crank was turned and rest of rotating parts were new. Edlebrock aluminum heads.
We have already been through the ZDDP problem as I toasted a motor about six years ago. We both run "Brad Penn" oil now.
FriedGreenTmater...We got the motor up to TDC on #1 cylinder. The timing mark on the balancer was setting at the '0' mark on the timimg tab. The logic being...the inner hub can't move, and if the outer piece had moved the timing mark would be off, right?
