ok found what i needed in a wsm but still puzzled about tdc mark on flywheel am i lining up a spot on the fylwheel under the pointer
Remove spark plug on cyl #1 and bring it to TDC using some kind of rod to know the higest point and you should find a mark near that spot.
Don't trust aligment marks in cams. Use degree wheel and dial indicator. Correct values for 0.05" lift depends on TR version, Euro/US and they can found from WSM.
right ! don´t trust the original alignments. if you go for those the engine of course will run, but not perfect. so please use a degree wheel to make sure you do it right the TDC on the flywheel shows 1/6 and also 7/12, this in 180° difference
Please be aware that the work shop manual may show European cam timing specs...and not the U.S. specs. The intake cam specs are the same, but I think the exhaust specs are different by a few degrees.
