If it does, that would advance both cams slightly thereby bringing you closer to an on spec condition.

thanks for the feedback.
it is actually quite off, i would say roughly 10 degrees higher on the intake side, and about 3-4 degrees lower on the exhaust side.....
i feel that there is a half-a-tooth slack somewhere....
here is my TDC mark ( i have my doubts about this, since the pointer is different than the one pictured in the factory cd)
here are pictures before i took it apart. i have moved on since to drill bits for better accuracy....notice the difference in intake and exhaust cams
lower on the exhaust side ^^^^^
way higher on the intake side ^^^^^^
head is off in this picture. I think my TDC setting is accurate.....
J.M, my guide on driver's side was in place minus the pin.....it should not be a problem ...
i am confused
