I have a MMR 1000SE motor to replace my stock short block. The heads came off the stock block fully assembled (they were gone through but ran on the stock block). I have read the few pages on this I could find and even looked at the pics but mine never seems to line up the same. I think the part to focus are the CAM keyways (deep cut 3/4 circular holes) are at 6 o'clock compared to the deck. This places the long groves on the LH at the 1 O'clock and the long groves on the RH at the 2 O'clock position. The crank is set at 6 o'clock for the keyway which I verified is TDC for the #1 piston. Hopefully I have all the terminology correct here. Either way here are some pics to help paint the picture and I can take more as requested, I just need help. There are yellow marks from where someone made them taking the heads off before, but I am thinking they are so that they could put the heads back on without spinning the motor or CAMs since they dont line up anywhere near what I have read. Just a guess! So please someone school me here!
