Default Cam gear / Timing help...

I'm not sure how well you can see it.. But the top dots don't point straight up, and the exhaust cam on the left side is sitting at a different angle then the others.. No matter what I do I can't get them to line up.. It's like the right cam sits higher when I have them point straight up. Any help?

I don't get it. They are adjustable cam gears. Are you saying you cannot adjust them? Are they supposed to be "straight up" on the gears? The two that are side to side are perfect.

My bad. I thought they all had to line up? That's what I was asking.

So that does look good?

It's in time. When you put the belt back on spin the motor over by hand a couple of times so the belt will have even tension all around.
