We have tried all your suggestions couple time but still no luck as far as cam pulled cone off 3 times to confirm it is right pulled motor apart to check shafts didn't spin in flywheels everything on bike is new now. the dude who built the motor in 99 when I put 10 grand on it (40 yr exp- me 40 yrs also )is baffled also he sat here at my house for 6 1/2 hrs trying to figure it out he left pissed off older s+s flywheel never came with tdc marks just the 35 degree mark but finding tdc is no problem first time my brain is done normaly can diagnose the problem by elimination but not this friggin thing thanks for all you guys help

Front cylinder coming up on compression, Rear Cylinder at TDC.... Front pretty much has to be at 45 degrees advanced...
So..back off 10 or more Marks from there!!!
And... a well tuned Ironhead, with good gas, will run very well indeed at up to 45 Degrees lead!!!
