I just don't know how that can be possible. Wrong crank?  Repaired crank?

If the engine is out of the car, I'd seriously consider replacing the crank.  I 
have a spare here.

I guess I didnâ??t say it right.  When #1 is at TDC crank is at 7:30.  I know 
about moving the pulley, thatâ??s how I discovered this anomaly.  

A friend suggested that possibly the end of the crank has been broken and 
welded, seems unlikely.

The hub has been taken apart at some stage in the past and put together wrong.  
Separate the 2 halves and rotate 1/6 turn so when the keyway is at 6:00, the 
mark is at 12:00.

OK, replacing the timing cover and then the front hub & pulley on the TR3 
motor.  The book says the when the keyway on the crank is at 6:00, the motor is 
at TDC. However it feels like TDC is a 1/6 of a turn beyond
that(clockwise) and that is where the notch in the hub is.  

Need to get the pulley positioned correctly before I move forward, it is a bear 
to deal with in situ. 

Someone who has BTDT?

Thanks,
