Default RE: YS 110FZ Problems... re-build?

Question from a YS newbie. Replaced the bearings, piston ring, cylinder head O ring and gaskets on my 110 fz. Everything went great expect for the fact that when setting the cam timig dots, with the crank dot at 6 oclock, the cam dot had to be either 11:55 or 12:05. I chose 11:55, and hopefully it was the right choice because OMG, the engine runs awesome now. Tached over 10,000 with 16 x 6 APC, and that was with the HS needle at almost 2 turns open. I didn't want to run the engine that fast with the new ring and bearings, so I quickly backed off the throttle. My question is, after following the tuning instructios, all three adjustments have changed. The regulator had to be leaned about 1/2 turn, the low speed needled leaned 3/4 a turn, and the high speed needle appears to have to be leaned a quarter turn although for the next 5 flights or so I thought I should keep the HS needle a little rich until the ring breaks in so I really don't know where it will end up exactly. The question is: Is it normal for the adjustments to all change like that?, or should I change the cam timing to 12:05 and see if the adjustments go back to where they were before the overhaul? I just really don't know much about these engines, and don't want to ruin it because I have the timing set wrong. First YS and 4 stroke engine for me.
