Uh, what? Lol. Clean the harmonic balancer well and there will be an indented line on it. That's your mark. It helps to put some yellow paint on it. Then there should be a timing tab attached to the timing cover. Line the mark on the balancer up with the center mark on the tab for TDC.

I took a wild guess and I think I got it right as its running great, New intake and everything that bolts to the intake is pretty much new! I cant belive how much actually had to be modded for that "simple" Swap

Pics later and something does feel right with the car, its like...pulsing I know its something in the drive train/suspension maybe brakes... Ugh... I think I like my 280ZX better at this point, it give me less problems and its 10 years older then my Camaro go fig
