Worst case you have probably moved it off the cam some. My advice would be to leave the crank alone and focus on getting the cams properly positioned. That crank bolt is a pia without the flywheel locking tool.

Are you saying that the engine will rotate with the cam timing off by 40 degrees?

I knew something was off when the IP locking tool went in with the balancer in no number zone

Is the harmonic balancer specifically tuned to a particular crankshaft? There is a 603 at my local pnp

When the Fuel Injection Pump is timed using the Timing Locing Pin you need to be sure it is timed right after TDC on the Compression Stroke to 15 Degrees After Top Dead Center. You don't want it 15 Degrees after TDC on the Exhaust Stroke. If you are worried about Valves hitting Pistons before starting rotate the Engine at least 2 complete ratations in the Normal Direction of Rotation by Hand. That way there is a good chance you would feel anything causing a problem

Keep in mind the balancer being off position can cause issues also. I think next step is to pull #1 prechamber and rotate crank to verify TDC position

Agreed
There is a procedure in the FSM for this using a dial indicator. I have been following this and I think something slipped along the way. Time to start from scratch and validate your static timing the same as if you had just rebuilt the engine. You can't trust anything at this point.

i don't have the tools to pull prechambers is there any other way to verify TDC? which way should the dowls behind the balancer face when at TDC?

You can pull the glow plug, and fill the cylinder with oil, the. Rotate the engine and watch for the spillage to stop and reverse.

if you rotate the engine and you do not feel any interference then the cam and crank timing should be OK. I strongly believe they are. Piston will hit valves if it is off by 40 degree. I am not a heavy duty engine guy but I think your problem now is the IP timing only. I would hesitate to remove anything unless you fully understand what you are doing. Best of luck.

Was car running prior to starting work? If it was running I would be surprised if harmonic balancer/timing indicator has shifted.

yes, aside from a ticking vacuum pump. but things were looking weird when the IP locking "tab" was not visible when the crank was showing 15 degrees
