My new comp. cam was the same way. It was supposed to be installed at 112 and when I put it in straight up it was at 118. Had to move the crank gear and put a button in cam gear to get it right. Comp say's it must have been a grind issue, however refused to send me another camshaft. This makes two different comp. cams that we have had this issue with. I think that erson will be my next cam choice.....
