[QUOTE="StrayBullitt, post: 15612007, member: 181759"] haha, I agree it's intimidating and I had timed a 2v quite a few times before, but it really is just a matter of getting the crank in position first and then going off of the dark links on the chains. Like I said if you can get another set of hands to help hold cams in place it makes it a lot easier, especially when installing the tensioners. ** "So basically i should be able to rotate the cam gear clockwise and align my marks from chain with the crank sprocket and all should be well." ** I'm not fully agreeing with this, maybe you meant to say Cam sprocket.. but.. You want to start with getting the crank in position very first thing, with the dot on the crank sprocket pointing straight down, looks like that is where you have it so that is good, now line up one of dark chain links on the long chain on the crank sprocket dot, then the other dark link then needs to align with the mark on your big exhaust cam gear sprocket, and this is the point in which you likely will need to rotate the cam slightly for the mark to line up to the dark chain link. Doesn't look like you disturbed the timing of the intake cam/(small chain) at all so that should all be correctly set, once you have it back together just make sure all the marks on the [B][I]cam sprockets[/I][/B] are in the correct positions once you have rotated the Engine over twice and the dot on the crank sprocket is back to pointing straight down.
