V6 Cam timing marks



The Alfa V6 cams are not adjustable.  The belt is the
only way.  The cogged wheels are keyed to the shaft
and cannot be moved.  If it's that far off, the timing
belt is not on correctly.  The only other thing that
can move the marks is milling of the heads and I don't
think it would move as much as you are talking.
Sperry and some others make offset keys, but that's
for fine tuning etc.  I know people who race V6's who
leave out the key altogether and claim they have never
had a problem.  NOT ME.  I wouldn't trust that taper
on the cam to hold the drive wheel in place.

Good Luck,
