What the !@#$^&* HE!@$

[GeneralDisorder]

Just imagine the horizontal line that connects the holes in the cam. I don't really pay much attention to the "timing mark" other than generally up or generally down. I don't have timing covers on any of mine, so I just look at the holes and make sure they are "level". The human brain is much more sensitive to "lines" than to little dots. This method has yet to fail me.

 

And i don't do the "rotate and check" after I put them on. I just line them up, time the disty, and start it. Works every time.
