Default LSVTEC cam alignment issues

Every time I set the belt correctly on my LSV it always end up being off half a tooth. I'm using GE adjustable cam gears.

I'm thinking that the difference in block height between the LS and GSR block is throwing it off.

Does anybody know how to compensate for this lost in deck height?
If you know of a quick fix or a walk through regarding this, please speak up.
Thank you.

dial the cams in using the adjustable cam gears. you need a dial indicator setup. if you don't want to go through that, just adjust the cam gears to a good estimate.

I know using a dail indicator is the "right" way to do it but i thought you can also advance the timing one degree for every .011 milled.

heres the deal, Im going to dyno the car right after it breaks in. i just need them to line up good enough for the break in process.
