Hello Jeff,

I am sorry when I posted the message it was way past my bead time... LOL
Yes, I WILL be locking the crank at TDC (at the flywheel side of the engine), the question is can I determine TDC by the position of the cams since my underdrive pulley does not have a mark on it.
Sorry for the crummy picture
