Here you go.From the manual.TDC bolt engaged with crank.Important thing is to count the teeth on idler to the marks on cam gears.No matter where you set the cam timing the tooth count ALWAYS will be the same.The Pin locations indicated in white are to be ignored and cams degreed in or use the stock positions.

Steve,

Wasn't the picture of the exhaust cam wrong? Intake cam at the 1 and 7 o'clock position and the Exhaust cam at 11 and 4 from the cam lobe?

can someone verify this?

The pin locations should be ignored or run stock positions if not degreeing.Everything else including tooth count is correct.

C27 is absolutely right. I've seen cams come through that although pin settings were correct per the manual, the degree wheel told a different story (example: actual degree on an intake came was 98 vs recommended 106 +/- 2 degrees). Your best bet is to always degree your cams to verify they are correct - otherwise you could spend plenty of time and $$ rebuilding a motor just to suffer poor performance due to bad cam timing.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the help. is any one looking ot sell a degree wheel at a great price?
Where do I get the info on how to Deg the cams?

Thanks

God bless...

Ps. I am pretty sure that the cams are off because I am running a 96.5 piston, ported head and big gun exhaust and I can't go below 2610 injector flow rate w/o running rich, so I'm pretty sure the motor is not breathing right.
