Back from the dead, when you switch from one cylinder to the next are you suppose to rotate the crank to position each piston to Tdc based on which cylinder you are working on

Best diy write up I've seen in a long time. As others have stated it's very detailed, even though the photos aren't absolutely necessary it's great to have them and in such great detail. I always thought I had to remove the rockers to do this and that had always shied me away from attempting this, but now that I read this I feel confident in attempting it myself and saving some money at the machine shop. Thanks for making this write up

Great writeup - 1 question:

How do I when I am at TDC with cylinder 2, 3 an 4 when its time to do those valve seals when the belt and cam gears are off (and the head is still on the car?).

Also, how does this effect timing once I put everything back together?
