Chain stretch? Left a locating pin out? I think that the cams can be out of time for how you want to drive the car, but that's more of a setting. I'm not as experienced as others here but I set my cams on my rebuild and you can accurately set them with the dial indicator between the 2 banks. You probably have a high lift cam engine and I hear they are harder to time. That might be a control issue with the tools to set it. I'd like to hear how this engine could go out of time due to running. I say nearly impossible by engine runs, except for a few decades of use. I'm a street guy though, not a racer.
