i dont want to make you worry but i do think you missed up the timing chain again!
you should have different key holes right below each number. you need to put where it says 0 and the key hole below that 0 on the the key on the crank and then line up the dot on that if that makes since to you.
some one correct me if im wrong.

Would you happen to have a picture with the heads off when you were installing the cam?

I know, your just looking at the wrong set of numbers. The ones on the teeth are for the dot to dot, the ones closer to the crank are in a different position and are for the key way. The ones closer to the crank have a 0 that is right where the key way is, you just can't see it because it's behind the oil pump gear.

I still have a long way before I'm ready for tuning, but right now I'm planning on having Speed inc. tune it for me, they did a nice job on my old set-up. Be patient for the vid and I'll explain the next step after you guys watch.

Alright, you guys finally ready, I know I am.
It's just a short vid but you start to get an idea. I had to kill it right away because I wasn't getting oil pressure. I checked my oil filter and it has oil, I installed it empty, so I know it's pumping. I think I need to just let it run for another couple seconds to give it a chance to make it all the way to the sensor.
I'm pretty excited
There probably wont be a full vid for a little while, don't kill me but I have no coolant set-up yet
I know I should have waited to start it but I couldn't. I'm not letting it run long enough for it to get hot so it shouldn't matter. I'm struggling to get the last few dollars for the remote pump and then it's just a matter of running a few lines. Then I'll take it out on the street for a little cruzing, I don't even know if my transmission is right so that will be the next step. After I make sure everything is working properly, then I need to upgrade my fuel system and go get tuned. From there I have some susspension adjustment to do and then it's track time. I'm hoping for early spring but fuel systems for this level of power are not cheap so I'm not sure how long that's going to delay me and I'm not going to risk it with my current set-up which is only good to about 950rwhp.
Well let me know what you think, I know I have the biggest feeling of relief I've had in a long time. Time to start celibrating
