You may have the marks in the idler right but are the marks right to the crank? Just thank goodness you did not have valves hitting pistons!!! We need more info to help you. Just a story but: My brother rebuilt a 350 Chevy and swore he had ALL the timing makes right to time the cam. It just would not start but did impressive backfires... long story short, it was out of time and there were more than one mark on the gear, he used the wrong ones. he got it right and that thing ran like a raped ape...
