Ok its on there but in the directions it says to align with the half marks then when the belts on turn crank clockwise till you hit tdc. Ok well now the belt is tight and everything is tightened down but the crank mark is aimed at the groove to the left of the 1/2 mark. Is this normal?? I'm just making sure before i button her up. I dont want to have to do this again. Also there is a little slack inbetween the cam sprockets. I havnt pulled the pin on the tensioner yet.

you need to align the crankshaft mark 1/2 notch before TDC so when you pull the pin out of the plunger the slack will be accounted for. The slack in the camshafts should also be eliminated but make sure all the marks still align after you rotate it twice.

yeah, sorry to say bro, but u gotta do it over :) re align it like he said, ^^^ but b4 u tight it all down too much make sure it will line up right. the marks line up almost perfectly, so you'll know.
