    Where does the mark on the oil pump sprocket line up to? It really doesn't match up to anything but it is close to the 0 on the rollmaster pump sprocket. Of course any info that I find the pictures don't show up. Any help appreciated

    Ok. I really didn't pay any attention to it. I just happened to notice the dot after I put back on the cover and tightened everything down. I'm glad I don't have to take it apart.

    Thanks man!!

    There are no marks to time it, it can be installed the wrong way though. If it fits onto the crank and the timing cover bolts down and it still moves then all is good.

    Lol Scotty. Fingers crossed!

    it fit in and the cover bolted down fine. Hopefully it's good.

    there is no timing alignment but it is not a bad idea to double-check that the rotating axis centerline's are concentric.
