Default cam install

ok everything was goin smoothly until i try to rotate the cam to line up the lil hole to tighted the cam gear down....

the cam rotates about 180 degrees then hits a very hard spot...

i didnt do a valve lash adjustment because well the car is really hot and figuring he was only upgrading from gsr cams to itrs....it would be that big of a deal...

help me please

One of your pistons is probably at TDC.

Put the timing belt on with all the marks lined up and turn it over by hand.

CTR cams will make more power than the ITR because they are more aggressive
