It's pretty common on higher mileage engines that the crank pulley will slip on the hub. It's pretty unlikely that you are running 40*. These engines can start to ping around 14*, and I've seen them ping at 12...

I'd take a look at the crank pulley and make sure it hasn't spun. If it has, you may look at replacing it to get an accurate idea of where the timing lies...
