Thank you all for the wealth of information! I managed to finally get the engine running after building the car and engine for two years! What a moment it was to hear it run again!

I have another question. This one is about timing.

-I am unable to run the engine with the CAS in the middle. It has to be turned fully clockwise in order for the engine to run normally.

- I am 95% sure I set mechanical timing correctly. I will verify the 5% next time I have the chance to work on the car.

-According to the marks on the damper, timing is highly advanced. Almost 30 deg btdc

Are these indicators of incorrect mechanical timing?
