This may seem stupid.. But, I went to check the timing, and I can't get to it. The timing marks are right up against the firewall. So, is there some trick to it? And, I hope you don't have to crawl under a running car to get to it...

I don't know of any early engines that would spec 38 degrees. The 911T/914-6 used 35, but all the others were lower. You will need to really find out what the cams are, both to figure out the best advance curve as well as to find out if the guy timed the cams properly. There are folks on the Pelican 911 board that will be able to advise you if you can determine what the parts are in your engine.
