Your post has me confused, are you referring to spark timing or cam timing? The cam timing being 27 degrees if it was that far off I don`t think the engine would even run. Need more detail on what your referring to.

What mark on the crank? The timing mark on the damper?
What do you mean by "the cam mark was at the fuel pump..."?? Are you talking about the timing dots on the cam and crank gear? If so, these positions are with the #1 piston at TDC on the compression stroke? Did you change the cam or timing gear recently? I mean, what have you done to make this like it is? You need to line up the dots on the cam and crank. Do a search for cam timing. How to verify crank and cam markings?

And you're sure the #1 piston was at TDC on the compression stroke?

If you mean it idles at 2500 RPM you either have a carb or a spark timing problem, cam timing won`t make it idle that high.

You need to go from square one. Make sure the cam is installed correctly, adjust the valves correctly, get the #1 piston at TDC on the compression stroke, set the distributor with the rotor at #1 when the #1 piston is at TDC and start it, then set the timing.
Some of the things you say here are bizaar and make no sense. It'll rev to 6k without the prop on and only 2,500 with the prop? What's with that?
