Deckplate timing issues....
Well here is the deal. After tensioning the timing belt I can't seem to get all the marks to line up. The cams line up but the crank pulley is off by about a 1/4 inch. The white mark is off to the right of the timing mark on the timing belt cover. I have tried absolutelly everything to get it to line up but it always sits 1/4 inch to the right. So I fire it up. Even with the distributor fully cranked towards the front of the car the red timing mark is about 2 inches off to the right of the mark when I check it with the timing light. Anyone know how to solve this??? I need to get this dialed in so I can take it and get tuned. TIA

See, I tried that. I lined up the cam gears and then loosened he cam gears up so I could move just the outer part of them. I then lined up the crank pully to the timing mark. But after doing so nothing changed. It just goes back to where it was but the cam gears show a few degrees of advance. Am I missing something here?

So I should move it seperatly from the exhaust cam? I have been moving them both at the same time but it dosent change ****. Will doing this screw up anything? I would think it would throw off my cam timing....*shrug*

ok when u are doing the timing with the belt make sure firsat that the dizzy is in the middle then install the timing belt making sure all the marks line up like there supose too. then after u make sureall the marks line up tdc and u are still of a 1/4in. adjust the cam gears +1 or -1 depending on where u are off. then start the car and let it warm up until your idle is normal or at around 750 rpm's then check it with a timing light to see where u are going to have to adjust the dizzy
and if u dont understand this u need to buy a book or take it to a shop

ryan doesn't need any of this adjusting the cam gears. all he needs to do is go get an offset gear from GE and a stock ITR or GSR timming belt, and you'll be fine.
ryan hurry up and give me a call so we can get your motor going man
