My engine looked just like this one (from the <a href="http://www.modularheadshop.com/caminstallation.aspx" target="_blank">Modular Head Shop timing instructions</a>) , with the crank timing marks at 180Â°.<img src="http://www.modularheadshop.com/images/100_1873.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />I even sprung for putting some fresh white-out on the timing marks and chain links - big spender that I am; next is a KB (I wish). <img src="http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> The big thrill so far is that I don't seem to have bent any valves. The shade-tree-leak-down test was good on all cylinders. But as we all know, the real test will be when I fire it up.One thing I noticed before I re-timed it was that with the crank at TDC the psngr side cam timing mark was in the right place but the drvr side was 180Â° out. I've read that being 180Â° out like that won't beak stuff which seems to be case for me...thank goodness.So now I just need to put the timing cover on, valve covers, and other front engine stuff.</blockquote>
