OK, I backed up to assure the cam and the crank were still married to each other at TDC.
Well, ...so much for my confidence in that the chain hadn't slipped a few teeth when it slipped from my hands. And then again (looking at the great photo that Lux sent), I don't see how the chain could skip on the lower end if allowed to get slack. But, apparently it did... I had to back up the chain four teeth to get cam and crank synced. oookay...
So the chain is in, and the cam and crank are married at TDC. Now, ...I'm not so confident if the IP is still in sync.
Has anybody got any old cowboy tricks for setting the IP up? I did notice fuel at the #1 injector when passing through TDC, while checking for clear rotation once completing the chain. I only take that as being somewhere near the ball park. I haven't checked to see when fuel is introduced, so I need to do some reading.
I'm digging back into the m/m now to get a clue about the IP.
I'd like to thank everyone for their help and suggestions. The is a great forum!
