Set perfect timing

Hi all,

I have a 1991 Civic D15B1, in the middle of a head-gasket change. Before reinstalling the head, how do I make sure the timing matches the block?

Thank you!

Just install the head, then line up the timing marks on the cam gear and crank pulley per the manual. Put belt and tensioner on and spin it over by hand a few times to verify the marks remain exactly correct.
