Top dead center- Mark on Driver's head?
 
Ok, I am getting ready to put the passenger side head back on. I am confident I can get it timed with some help.

I need to know where the driver's side timing mark will be when the crank is at tdc. I can see when the #1 piston is up.

From the looks of the cd/manual, the crank keyway is at 12 from horizontal reference. The driver's head cam gear would be at 12 from reference to the head.

What I have now, with the pistin all the way up is keyway at 11:00 from horizontal and the driver's cam mark is at about 11:30 - 12:00 from the head.

Can someone please tell me where this is supposed to me?

Thanks! I'd love to do this Wednesday evening.

Doug
