Is the mark on the camshaft in line with the mark on the camgear? Check that...I still reckon the gear has slipped on the cam [not enough interference in the press fit]. The mark on the camshaft is hard to see...if you look at my picture above it'll give you an indication as to where it should be [The pictured cam was degreed in, then locked into place with scotch key]
