I did the timing for the first time. Exhaust cam first rotate 3 teeth and tighten. Rotated 5 times with crank at tdc. Best I could get it both the marks on the sides to line up and gears pointing up but slightly forward with the crank back at tdc. Car starts fine no issues just wondering.

Also ignition timing is spot on so does the re assure
I did it right?

 

sounds good to me.


with honda its a good or bad thing but if you get it wrong you will know FAST. either no start or cam timing off enough to bend valves either way you WILL know

 

good to hear. she fired up after a full top to bottom clean up and build with the touch of the key. just a cleaned up b16a head and block.
