What im going to do is rotate the crank until I have TDC of #1 with out the heads on. Im going to mark it. Then do the same thing for #5 so i dont have to deal with that things. its confusing to me.

We'll lets see, if I just set the piston stop in there and adjust it to the proper setting, I can rotate the crank and I have a friend watch when the stop moves. I guess itll work the same way??


OK now where do I adjust it
