Nathan:

Crank "pulley" is the harmonic balancer. It can be installed correctly or 180 degrees off! Make sure the pointer is aligned with the TDC mark when the #1 crankpin is up top. If you are using new pistons of different size, or have replaced rods, or had anything ground, please get the crank balanced before installation -- if it is significantly out of balance the engine will shake terribly. Balancer and flywheel are separately balanced on these engines, so only the crank needs balancing.

There is a mark on the splined shaft at the front of the IP, and a mark in the upper left corner (or lower right corner?). Line them up and the IP is at TDC for #1. If it is off, it will be 180 degrees out. You will be able to tell when you set injection timing (before the engine goes back in).

Location of injection timer (the centrifucal thing that the chain drives) isn't important. The splines for the IP aren't keyed.
