I know its keyed because of the sensor, but is it still possible to put the cam in wrong? Since its keyed on the one end, on opposite sides, you could potentially flip the cam? Or would it not matter if you flip them or not?

If it does matter how do I go about fixing this
 
Line up the notch on the CAS paddle, with the dot on the CAS housing, and insert the CAS with the engine at TDC. (cam dowels facing up)

Ps. Yes it matters.
I think I see what u mean, keep in mind the heads off the car. And when I place the cam in with the sensor lined up, the dowels never reach the 12 o clock position.
 
See the dot/notch lined up with the notch in the paddle (just above the o-ring).

Yup I know exactly what you're talkin about. I think I got it all perfect then. Thanks so much you all, now I can start putting the head back on and getting this car on the road
