set it to top dead center and see if the crank/cams are lined up good....do it by hand with a socket, dont chance starting it if you think the timing is off, could do damage to valves/pistons....if i had a dollar for everytime i knew someone who said they knew how to set timing and f-ed things up (myself included)....id have about 4 dollars. always roll the crank a couple revolutions and recheck timing before starting the car.
