Title: Timing Post by: holmesgr001 on October 22, 2015, 05:27:16 AM I need some help. I got the head back and fitted it to the block. With cylinder 1 and 4 on tdc and the cam pulleys on there marks( as in pic below). When I turn the motor( by hand) it gets about 3/4 way before touching a valve. Any ideas?(http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/10/21/95ddeda3b1316db445a9e4b4a6a71ee7.jpg)
