I took the head off to replace head gasket and when i removed the cams i forgot to mark what position they were in for when i re-intalled them. Is there any good right up on how to do a top dead center in order to get the cams lined up right or an easy way to tell how they go back on?

awesome site with great how-to’s

good luck its fairly easy, just remember to have the tensioner loose and put the belt on the exhaust side first then do the intake side, spin it around halfway and then tighten the tensioner using the way listed
