distributor could be 180 degrees off.
put motor to top dead center,take distributor off and make sure the 2 lines are parallel.

Did you use the white or red mark to find TDC? The white mark is correct.

Get a degree wheel and a dial indicator. This is the only way to accuratly phase your cams correctly with your crank. The marks should only be used as a visual referance. There are kits out there that you can by that has everything you need to phase you cams right
