I just got done putting the head and cams back on my NA after putting on a 3mm headgasket. Hooray.
Anyways, the matchmarks I put on the timing belt faded before I got the job done, so I am starting from square one.
Question 1:
How do I set the No. 1 cylinder to top dead center of the compression stroke?
Question 2:
After I do this and put the timing belt on (with both cam gear hash marks aligned with the timing belt cover), how do I set my alternator properly (what point should the rotor be at when the No. 1 cylinder is at TDC compression)?
Thanks to anyone that can help, I would like to get this job knocked out tomorrow!
