    You did turn it thru at least 2 complete revolutions??? good deal---lots of folks don't get that correct--they think that closet v/p is at top dead center when it isn't , but at about 10 degrees before/after on the overlap ----------


    We haven't used any of the pro comp rods-------

    we went though it prolly like 9 or 10 revolutions.. about 3 revolutions per timing mark.. all of them revealed the same clearance ... and ok the build on super chevy was a small block 400 with a 175 shot of n2o on it making 732 horse and 729 lb-ft so im guessing they r ok haha
