Okay rad, I'll toss it back in tomorrow and give it a shot.

I forgot the car has a Bosch reman alt, starter, and injectors for MB! :D

Okay, almost all the topend stuff has been removed minus the head... I want the cam and crank lined up before I yank them. It's about 16-20° out currently, which is around one tooth on the cam sprocket from what I've been told.

To get closer to zero on the balancer, which direction should I rotate the camshaft (standing in front of the vehicle) to get it lined up? My instinct is telling me left.

Getting close to driving my 62hp of fury! :D

It depends which direction you are off. If you have the bottom on zero, and you're applying some kind of tension to the chain on the left hand side, is the timing mark high or low on the tower mark?

It's to the left side of the balancer. The side that shows the stretch. So, it's retarded I presume.

Going to say it's above the tower mark at zero on the balancer.
