When you timed the cam, did you then rotate the crank at least eight times and check the dial again? This is an important stage of the process as it makes sure that the crank sprocket is pulling the cam sprocket without any slop in the system. Make sure you don't overdo the tension with the vise grips. You want it good and snug but not so tight that things bind up.
Loosen the death grip on the vise grip a little, set the cam, rotate the crank at least eight times and then check the dial. The reason the crank rotation is important is that all the moving parts are allowed to line up with each other.
Keep your chin up, you'll get it.
