I would personally set everything to TDC. You might have to finagle the cam gears a little bit to get the belt over. Getting it to TDC is easy. Line the white mark on the crank pulley with the line on the block. Also, the cam gears have small dash arrows on the edge of the gear that will point at each other at TDC.
