The lope could definitly be due to the timing being off, but 1/2 a tooth really isnt much at all, so I dont know.
Dont be shocked if you get some CEL's after you put some miles on the car. They would not come on upon startup. Takes some time for the ECU to log some heat cycles.
That's awesome that you got her up and running thought man. Congrats, and good luck!
