    Default help with timing cams?

    ok, so ive got the car at TDC. i found one picture online showing how to align the tic marks but when i put it all together, the car barely starts up and runs like CRAP. idk whats wrong. i checked that everything is hooked up. but it just acts like its out of time. so can someone verify how i make sure that the cams are in correct time?

    found the FSM. i kept thinking my timing was off bc it idled and was running like crap. turns out the large injectors being on the car had soaked the spark plugs and it needed to burn off that gunk. it just kept sounding like the timing was off. turns out it was right after all. fixed and on to the next task to prepare for the dyno
