Probably well within acceptable tolerance, Joel. You'll have some slack in the mesh of both the cam chain and the distributor drive gear. It's also a little difficult to get an accurate picture of this without precision measurement tools like a dial indicator and degree wheel. If you have a high-mileage engine, it is always better to replace the timing chain assembly while the car is in your garage and at your convenience. You'll not spend more than $100.00 even with the most expensive Cloyes True Roller set and it shouldn't take more than a brief afternoon. This takes retarded cam timing completely out of the performance question.
