The acutal degree of the gears is on zero but if you look the lines on the gears have to be parallel with the head. yours are off big time

Not completely sure what's going on, but since you don't have the belt on you can just turn the cams by hand. Make sure cyl. 1 is at TDC and then just align the markings on the gears. If your dist. is way advanced then I would retard it back to normal. The timing looks pretty messed up if this is the way that it was. You're motor not running right, or only running when your dist. is way advanced is a sign that your timing is way off.

Just put the stock cam gears back on. Aftermarket ones dont do anything unless you are going to adjust the timing for any reason. For DD, the stock cam gears work wonders and you will have the correct timing with them.
