#1 piston at TDC of compression stroke
Cam Notch lined up (lobes more or less pointing up on #1)
now connect the chain
turn engine to 23 degrees BTC (theres a mark on the ballancer)
now line up the mark on the IP and bolt it up
Thats how I did it as I remember. You should get lots of help on this one but thats the general idea if I remember right. Sounds like your making good progress. You can adjust things if you wind up a tooth or two off by bunching the chain and working it around the cam sprocket, which is what I had too do, best of luck
