From the sound of your post I would doublecheck the accuracy of your 0 - 90 -180 - 270 markings on your damper and insure the 0 mark on the damper is really #1 piston TDC. I've seen a partially spun damper off by less than 5 degrees cause what you are describing. I am assuming you don't have some outrageous piston wrist pin offset that might contibute to this scenario. (I've never seen up to a 0.60" offset have any effect)
