    I got it! The timing mark on the balancer was the cause. I took a zip tie and stuck it down in the #1 hole. Found out that when my balancer mark was at 0 the piston was not at top dead center. So I used a zip tie to find top dead center and I made my own line with a white marker on the balancer. Dropped my distributor back in and had it times with in 5 mintues and running at about 8 on the timing cover marker.

    Thanks for all the help advice and info. Now we will see how it runs when I get out on the road later this week.
