When I attempt set the engine time I line up the crank to tdc mark. Then when setting up the cam timing it seems the exhaust cam timing mark is slightly above the top of the valve cover and the intake cam timing mark is slightly below the top of the cylinder head. I counted 36 chain pins from mark to mark. I’m not still sure if the timing is correct. The way I see it either the exhaust cam will timing mark will be slightly above the top of the head and the intake will be slightly below or vice versa. Not sure what is correct. I’ve timed many cars and are bikes but never had them with this discrepancy. The bike runs with the exhaust slight above and the intake slightly below. Runs fairly well. Any insight would be helpful.
