you need to make sure the crank pulley shows its at TDC (white mark) and then line up both cam gears

r u sure ur cams are aligning correctly cause when i did my friend's 94 ls timing i had to sweak the cam. Even though the cam is up, i still have to turn either the intake or exhaust cam by one teeth to make the car run right. DON'T KNOW WHY.

Are you talking about mechanical or ignition timing?
