First off don't make any drastic changes if the engine really is running well. You know it can't be at ATDC. So do what many have suggested, pull a plug, get piston #1 on TDC and see where your timing mark is. If its not on TDC you know something is wrong such as harmonic balancer slipped, timing marks cut in the wrong place, etc. If it is at TDC you are doing something wrong setting up the timing light. I really doubt it is a problem with how the engine is set up or, like you said, it wouldn't run so well.
