i just put my cam in and got to the timing of the crank pulley and looked in the manual and it said to set it on the silver notch to the farthest right, but i could have sworn that it was supposed to be set on one of the other 3 notches to the left of that because it ran a little bit advanced. does anybody know?

 

what motor

 

If you're standing on the driver's side, looking toward the passenger side, the mark "furthest to the right" is TDC.

GSR timing marks:

 

i know where top dead center is i just dont know which of the btc marks my car is supposed to run on. its a d16y8(99 EX).

 

You're talking about ignition timing right? Spec for a D16Y8 is 12 degrees BTC, which is the red mark on the cank pulley, between the two brown ones.

 

cool thanks that answered my question
