Thread: Cam timing dots

Tweet

Iam installing my cam in my 438 and i cant remember if it is dot over dot or both dots at noon. Then after that i should be able to drop in the distributor and fire it up. Sorry for the questions this is my first big motor build. thanks
Mike

the thing i got from comp says that i just line them up dot to dot and thats it. if i left them at dot to dot would that be alright or should i line them up dot to dot and then rotate the motor so intake valve opens and then closes. This sucks really starting to get confussed. lol

Its ok thank you, so when i put it dot to dot and the crank is at top dead i should have to rotate the motor i think one full turn to get it where it should be.

OK cool thank you very much, hopefully i will have the car done this year. Thanks again
Mike
