I time-stretched the file so that the first and last lines are both in synch, but the middle of Side One is somhow still way off. With the beginning and end in sync, I'm at a loss to understand why the middle would go out of whack like that.
Any ideas?

I have found in my experience with lining these things up, that they need to be constantly updated to stay in synch. I don’t have a single definitive answer for why this is. Even after any variation in overall running speed is addressed, there always seem to be random spots where one gets slightly ahead of or behind the other. Sometimes it’s a gradual drift - as if one of them shifts in speed, sometimes it jumps out slightly due to dropped frames (this almost always occurs at the original changeover intervals between reels).
