hey wut marks do u line for the timing im rebuilding my topend and putting a new cam chain in and when i took it apart it the marks didnt match

ok well set the engine at top dead center and there should be a dimple on the stock cam have that facing towards the front wheel...then you put the timing chain sprocket on and make sure the big line with the capital T labeled on it is lined up perfectly straight towards the front wheel...youll see three marks on the case behind next to the sprocket line it up with the middle one and you should be all set....just pm me if you have any troubles
